This hotel should not be opened, and it needs to be removed from hotels.com website. Cockroaches, unsanitary, dirty and just gross.

This property is old, yet clean. Little dingy. AC didn't function to it's capacity so it was discomforting. Even though we were only there for 6 hours (arrived at 5am and checked out by 11am), we managed to rest. Staff were nice.

You get what you paid for
The lady at the counter was nice. She checked us and quickly. Upon getting into our room we found roaches and a bee. The whole room needed an upgrade fixtures were falling internet didn't work very good. Well we got what we paid for.

granular bars only breakfast
I chose the place because it says "breakfast" is included. But they only have coffee, juice and one kind of granular bars! What a joke!

8/10 Very good

It was nice to find an affordable room for one night on short notice through the app. It was also nice to have the reservation correct and available upon arrival. While checking out just before 11am it was nice to have complimentary coffee since the room price includes a continental breakfast but, apparently, not after 10am. Approximately 8 hours after check out, the realization that an item had been left behind generated a phone call. The manager seemed quite ambivalent stating that the item had likely been recycled. What?!?! That response was not only shocking, it is also unacceptable. We shall see if this manager has any idea how to manage his housekeeping staff or how to provide good customer service.

I am not sure why Orbitz would have people give this place a 4 or 5 star. This place was dirty, nasty and smelly. There were holes in the walls, tiles were missing, microwave was dirty and so was the fridge. I would not recommend anyone to stay there. Oh, they do not have breakfast the way their website shows.
