2/10 Poor

Terrible

Dirty room, there were a pair of glue on eyelashes stuck to the shower wall. There were roaches and bugs. They keep the doors open before you check in with the AC off so it was extremely hot in there and the AC hardly worked, so we demanded a refund and left. It was in an unacceptable condition.
Zachary, 7-night trip

Nice clea
juan, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Disappointing

I was staying for two nights. Checked in very very late and got into my room. The electrical plugs next to the bed had been removed from the walls and there were cockroaches on the floor and the bed. I went back to the front desk and asked to change rooms, which they obliged. But the new room also has cockroaches, just not as many. The room was comfortable other than the roaches but no coffee maker.
