There was a lot of commotion in the hallway off and on from 11:00 til 2-3 am. Someone was yelling at the kids in the hall and then it sounded like others came to discuss the threats every 30 min or so. As they entered or exited a door somewhere my door moved in the frame as if someone was trying to open it. Between that and then loud discussions outside my door I didn’t get a very good sleep and I checked out early. I I was not able to get a refund for the second night, but would appreciate some remuneration for this.

Very noisy. After asking the people to be quiet at 1am, called to the front desk. Loud for the next 40 minutes and then again at 4am. Although the staff were polite, there was no compensation offer for such an awful experience

The hotel room was clean, clear and specious and you could find everything you want as hotel there. However, the breakfast was not great and the waiters reached came to our table immediately after finishing breakfast and give us the check before we ask them for it. They clearly waited us to leave the dining room impatiently while there are a lot of available tables for other guests.

Hotel at first glance looks extremly clean. However, within 20 min of being in the room we found two huge bugs. My husband killed them immediately. He assumed they came in from outside or w.e- we were not sure what they were at first until the next morning when we checked out... another guest checking out in front of me had a photo of the same bug on her phone and was showing the staff she had found it in her bed.. she referred to it as a roach...the staff did not correct her, just apologized and offered her free breakfast as a comp. We went out to dinner late in the evening. When returning to the hotel there were multiple drug addicts walking through the parking lot checking car doors... reading reviews i had no idea we were in a bad area or should worry.. the staff were amazingly nice and helpful. The room was generally clean but i wouldnt return due to the neighbourhood and the bugs.. not for me...
