After checked in. I went to my room and saw cockroaches on the end table, wall, in the bathroom and there was a small spider on the bed. I try to come down to the frontdesk to cancel the reservation but the hotel gave me a hardtime and tell me to call expedia to cancel then expedia team told me they cannot contact the hotel. I am even try to stay at another location with the same owner but the hotel told me to book a new one and cancel with Expedia and still charge me the cancellation fee. Expedia and Hotel They did not want to help you out. I ended up being charged by cancellation fee without staying, they aware of the cockroaches and spider i even took somes pictures to show them. Any one who read my feed back please do not stay at this one if you dont want to sleep with cockroaches and spider around you. And cannot cancel or try to explain to get the cancelation fee back. Worst experience ever with Expedia and this hotel after more than 10 years of using their service.

Overall our stay was good. The area around the hotel is very disgusting and poor. The hotel itself smelled like cigarettes once we entered our room yet it said “NO smoking”. The room was very clean. But there was others down the hall being super noisy. The area in general is not really safe. There is people walking all night!!!! Unacceptable. But I can say the staff that helped us check & out was very helpful, no complaints in that area.

I ate breakfast in the lobby and some guy stared my down the entire time I was eating just because I glanced at him. I felt like my life was in danger. The clerk told me he does alot of guest like that. She stated that he an his dad have mental illness. I swear if I had a gun on me I would’ve been holding it to save my life

The first night we spotted a roach, decided to give it another chance. The next morning we immediately left after spotting yet another roach. Whole floor smelled like weed despite it being a non smoking floor/hotel. The toilet went in and out, working sometimes, not working at others. The Ac was ancient and outdated making a very irritating buzzing noise when ever the fan inside of it was on. The stopper on the tub was broke. The elevator wasn't functional while their and apparently no one was aware. The Hairdryer was non functional. The cabinet was missing a handle. And the absolute worst part was that management was completely unwilling to work with us on a refund for the days we didn't stay. We packed up and left on the start of day 2 of a. 7 day stay, due to seeing another roach coming out of a drawer and no assisted stating the management wasn't there at the time.

I like the property and the 2 staff members at the front desk, which was two Spanish young ladies was very nice and welcoming. One of them would remember my name each time she saw me. It looks like the property was under construction, so that was no big deal. But one thing that freak me out. That was seeing bugs in the bathroom and especially in the bed. That would keep me up longer because if that and I had to leave a light on. Because I felt like once the lights was off. That’s when I would see them more
