- MKMantas KandratavičiusDec 31, 20251.0Shared kitchens and bathrooms already set the bar low here, and instead of fixing issues the staff sends threatening emails about locking the kitchen overnight, which says a lot about their management style. What completely crosses the line is the rat infestation: I discovered it the day I put leftovers on the floor and rats showed up instantly to join in on the meal inside the room. An email complaint was met with five days of radio silence, and when I finally called reception the response was a blunt “so what do you want us to do?”, followed by a promised callback that never came. On a second call I was told they could “look into it,” but there was no offer to change rooms to something more sanitary or even a partial refund for the remaining week, and no solution whatsoever, leaving me to enjoy the rest of my stay with my new grey roommates. This isn’t bad service, it’s negligence, and anyone considering staying here should seriously reconsider.
- JJJodie JacobsNov 2, 20255.0Clean rooms and great location. Honestly a really cute inn.
- ESELAINE SMITHOct 21, 20252.0This hotel advertised a communal kitchen Not communal bathrooms And showers.This hotel is also NOT ADA/HANDICAP friendly. There are no elevators in the hotel and very modest handrails. As a new knee replacement recipient lugging luggage up and down stairs was not conducive to my needs.They need to be more clear on the amenities and limitations of this hotel.
- JJJadeOct 15, 20253.0The room had a very strange smell. It wasn’t possible to open the window but even so there was a loud fan outside. There was a connecting door to the room next door, which allowed every noise from the guests next door to come through, even just their simple movements. I asked to switch but they were full. The shared bathroom was old and a bit gross. Guests seemed to sit on a chair that was right outside my room at night which was a bit odd. The area is okay, it’s centrally located and has some bustling restaurants but I explored nicer ones and it’s a bit close to some more sketchy parts. I would say you get what you pay for but I paid too much for this stay. Definitely bring earplugs. Very glad I did. The housekeepers work hard but were knocking on the door at 8:30am which seemed a bit early, especially when I was due to check out anyway at 11am.
- TTThomas TrevinoOct 15, 20255.0This Hotel Represents America. Great Experience.
