Never Again...
When my girlfriend and I first booked the hotel, we looked up their website and saw that it looked pretty nice from the pictures. We were confident in seeing the positive reviews and ratings for the hotel. Upon our arrival, we noticed the hotel is of course an old building and looks straight out of the 70's with the matching out dated patio furniture and cheesey mexican music playing over the intercom. We proceeded to check in (5th floor) and pay for parking, get that, we get to pay an extra 18 dollars a day in order to park at the hotel in which we are staying at... and not to mention, there is no complimentary breakfast. Well we proceeded to go check out our room and as soon as we got off the elevator we were overwhelmed with the smell of paint. Apparently they were repainting the entire hallway which they neglected to tell us, and to top it off our room was at the very end of the hall. The room looked decent but of course the wall paper was peeling and the room smelled of paint. My girlfriend could not bear the smell, so we requested for a different room, they understood and accommodated us with a room on the second floor with a balcony to the pool area. We got into our room and the first thing we noticed was it was very small and cramped compared to the other one. I went on to unpack and noticed a total of three dead crickets in plain sight but out of the way, I got busy and didnt get a chance to clean them, another thing was we were out of kleenex in the room. We went out to the riverwalk and found out it was a 15 minute walk to the main area where the restraunts and bars are located, which wasn't too big of a deal but who honestly wants to walk back at 2 in the morning buzzed and not having any railing to prevent you from falling in... The next day we woke up late and had to let them know at the front desk to have housekeeping clean our room, and we let them know about the crickets and empty kleenex box. When we got back later that night, long behold the crickets were still there and still no kleenex. I called the front desk and advised them that the crickets were still there and they hadn't replaced my kleenex box, they apologized and said they'd talk to their staff. Of course nothing was ever done about it, we stayed our 4 days (with no kleenex and sleeping with the crickets) and were glad to be able to leave that place for good. I will never again stay at this hotel and i WILL NOT recommend this place to anyone.
