High Fees

Front desk (at afternoons/nights) is the worst, pretentious, rude and not helpful at all (I don’t know if it was a cultural thing as English is not my native language, and again, front desk was not helpful at all).
The room smells, probably because this is a pet friendly hotel. I get the hotel being pet friendly, but you have to pair it with it being “human” friendly; I can’t believe I asked front desk guy for a place I could warm up some food and he just said “no microwave” followed by a dead silence. I don’t know if this was a cultural thing.
Finally, 55 dlls plus tax for overnight parking is just excessive.
Can’t wait to get out of here. Food is great though.

Overpriced and disappointing. The $35 nightly amenity fee adds no value—no free water, nothing useful. Rooms are tiny and poorly designed, with safety hazards: a table jammed against the bed bruised my foot, the TV dangerously close to your head when walk off bed to bathroom, and the bathroom sink is old and set so low it’s painful to use. For the cost, this hotel fails to deliver comfort or quality. Also, avoid the bar in the lobby, glasses were not cleaned properly and had visible fingerprints, which made the experience feel unhygienic.

Abbiamo soggiornato qui diverse notti, non abbiamo usufruito del loro parcheggio interno perché costosissimo (oltre 60 dollari a notte) ma nelle vicinanze c'è quello pubblico sempre a pagamento e al chiuso con circa 15$ per notte. Abbiamo notato poca chiarezza nella reception riguardo la tassa di soggiorno che abbiamo scoperto solo settimane dopo nell'addebito in carta di credito. Le camere sono in stile industriale senza rifiniture, ok la pulizia , il bagno buono confortevole. Male invece le finestre delle camere, sono vecchissime in alluminio che non si chiudono bene e quindi si sentono i rumori esterni, ma a quanto leggo nei commenti è un problema noto. Abbiamo gradito la disponibilità da parte della struttura del depuratore di acqua potabile.

Esta a la salida a del metro.
La hacer mi arribo el empleado que atiende en mostrador fué poco tolerante, poco empático, TENGAN CUIDADO, las políticas del hotel dicen que tienes que dejar depósito a Webo. Yo no lo sabía. Mi tarjeta me rechazaron porque no estaba PERSONALIZADA, les sugerí pagar n efectivo pero hicieron muecas, finalmente me aceptaron la propuesta pero me cobraron 200 dólares más aparte
Hay inquilinos clla hicieron menos porque no estaba personalizada Yo dejé 400 Cuartos muy fríos. No me agradó mucho. El agua de la alberca es fría.
Me haspede la semana pasada (Nov 31 de nov)tristemente predomina el racismo. Esas alarmas contra incendio que no más descontrolaban, no dejaron dormir mi familia.

We booked this hotel for 3 nights for my sisters birthday bc of the good reviews. The first night we were on the 7th floor and we heard every conversation, car passing, and people screaming on the main road ALL NIGHT (the windows are very thin and the concrete walls make all the noise echo). We notified staff and they were nice enough to move us to another room on the side of the hotel on the 8th floor, as we were getting ready to shower in this new room, the shower handle was so rusty it wouldn’t turn on without a good amount of force. Again we asked to move, staff told us that there were no other rooms and maintenance would come “take a look”. We told them that maintenance wouldn’t be able to fix it bc it just clearly needed to be replaced. Then the employee had suddenly “found” a different room for us. On the 12th floor but facing the main road again promising this floor has “double lined windows”.. why aren’t all the windows like this..?? Anyways, it’s still loud and I would never stay here again.
