Stay away from here! Too dangerous. Never experienced anything like this before. The inn was surrounded with wanderers and trespassers shouting and fighting. The building/parking lot was dark with no valid lights. The office was closed, lights off, and vacant to the point that we did not attempt to get out of the car for check-in. Broken glasses in the parking lots and the roads surrounding. Safer to sleep on the streets by Ghirardelli Square.
This was rubbish! When we checked-in and paid, we were given a room that smelled like somebody died there! The air was full of smoke, marihuana and alcohol, it was toxic! We turned out immediately and went somewhere else!
The place was filthy outside and inside the room.
Our blankets are full of cigarette holes. Room smells heavily of cigarette. Heater/ac doesnt work at all therefore there was no ventilation. at the same time opening the windows doesnt make sense as outside smells like trash. worst hotel I have ever been. The person that check as i was rude.
Literally anything wrong with a hotel, this place has it. I only stayed because it was very cheap and offered free parking, so you get what you pay for. Cleanliness and safety were the biggest issues. I would not stay here again.
The hotel is smell so bad, no fire alarm or hazzard, no coursty on the guest at all no towell, no air condition trying to give it to me but I decline the place is like hell u can’t even lock the door so the worker there just come in to me door without permission and the old lady see me naked. They don’t answer their phone trying to call them from the room with the landline and I used my cell to call the office on the same time but no answer, it means if anything happen to you in the hotel they don’t care or is not liability to them, like you’re on your own risk.
Can’t walk to or from car without being propositioned from a prostitute or drug dealer. Dirty rooms no toilet seat ductape converting holes in the wall also bullet holes in the walls. The clerk or hotel manager was extremely rude. Wanted to put me in a room with no key card and told me I would need to ask the front desk every time I needed in the room. Changed to another room and only had 1 key card. Never coming back
There is nothing to like! Dirty, loud, drug users, prostitutes, no parking, terrible service, key didn't work daily, did have a king available which is what I booked for, house keeping didn't want to wash pillows, staff was almost never in office.
Very bad hotel, horrible neighborhood i had people knocking on my door claiming to be the police in the middle of the night. Very scary hotel i would not recommend to anyone
extremely dangerous place, it has all the signs of break-in, the furniture is all smoked from cigarettes and the smell in the room is unbearable. this hotel looks like a drug shelter with no rules. the pillows have no pillowcase, sheets were never washed, covered with holes everywhere made by cigarettes. the bathroom was dirty and the shower didn't stop dripping. the air conditioner does not work nor the heater. the broken windows with plywood to cover up, impossible to lie down on a bed that looks like it's never been cleaned. there are cockroaches!!!! it's definitely the worst place I've ever seen. unfortunately it has nothing to do with the photos on the site. flee. this hotel is a deception does not look like the photos!
First, when we arrived the gentleman at the front desk notified us that unfortunately most rooms did not have functioning key card readers; therefore we would not be receiving a key card. He told us that he would be opening the door for us with a master key every time we wanted to get back into the room. The lock on the room door was broken so we had to literally wedge a chair against the door handle for security. The room was dirty, the sheets all had cigarette burns, the shower head did not work and we had to bathe with a cup using the water from the lower faucet. The hallways and staircases all smelled of urine, the elevators were only for show since they were non operational. The roof in the shower was falling apart due to a leak they had. This is the worst experience in a hotel in my entire life.
