This was the worst hotel I have stayed in! The room was not comfortable and dirty. There was all types of repairs that needed to be done. The staff refused to give us extra towels. You
Are only allowed one towel per person ( no hand or face towels) and 1 small soap for the group. No microwave. Just a blanket on the bed I slept in my clothes and a jacket cause the heater didn’t work. Horrible experience!

I've stayed in some pretty awful places before, but this was the worst of them.

The room was awful. It smelled terrible, the wallpaper was coming off in the bathrooms, the wall outlets were half removed, the TV remote didn't work. Who knows what lived in the carpets and towels. I shudder to think.

The room had been broken into before. The screen was still half pried open, and the window lock was one of those cheap aluminum and thumb screw things.

It was advertised as having a microwave and fridge, but they were in the office...which doesn't open until 7AM, so I had to leave my breakfast there when I left.

The router had been stolen, so there was no wifi. No big, I wouldn't have used it anyway. Just another thing that was wrong.

This is one of those monthly places, so you get what you get. as in, the room next door had people in it partying until late. containers with the lids cut off to collect the AC condensation on all the units was a nice touch. lol

Oh, and the kitty litter

My boss is going to hear it from me for booking a room here. Next time I'll choose.

Unless you need a place to party on the cheap, I'd steer clear.

My experience at this hotel was bad. The people werent bad but the whole experience was overall bad. I could not breathe in the room, there was a smell. A bad one. I threw a moving blanket and a tarp over the bed. Still got bit by bedbugs. And other residents around me were trying to solicit things. I got out of there as soon as possible. It cost more money after i bought the lysol, moving blankets, new clothes and tarps to put on bed. Just eat the extra cost and pick any other hotel around the area, because it is a cool area

Hotel promises refrigerators, microwaves, coffee makers -- had none. Only had ONE towel that had to double as a bath mat. NO daily housekeeping. WiFi so bad it might as well not exist. To sum up the kind of place this is: they had a tow truck come in the early hours of the morning to tow some car away -- loud enough to wake the dead.
The sad thing is, the room was spacious and it COULD be nice if someone did the bare minimum.

The staff was polite and friendly, but they did not provide any assistance. We had no soap in our room. We were missing several light bulbs and were short on towels. When I asked for soap, the manager seemed surprised but then said that they didn't have any; he checked without even looking. I requested an early check-in a few days in advance and in person, but was declined. That was not a big issue. I understand staffing issues and scheduling, but soap and towels!?! That air conditioning unit took a long time to cool the room. There's more but I think that paints the picture. I'm grateful that we only stayed one night.

If I could give 0 starts I would. While staying on the property, I made the front desk aware that the mirror had fallen off the wall in my room. Thank goodness it didn’t break. That being said, I got yelled at by the person at the front desk. I bought what was needed and put the mirror back on the wall.

I stayed here only because it was closer to work, but realized I’ll never stay here again. I don’t need to be yelled at and treated that way. I’d rather stay somewhere farther away knowing I’m treated better and not yelled at.

When I told him at the checkout that the shower did not work, he literally started to yell at me that I should have told him earlier. When I said that I could not have told him earlier because I only discovered it last evening and that I wanted him to know this so that they could fix it for the next guest, he said it was none of my business.

The Caravelle is one of those places that probably used to be decent but it is just run down. It is in a bit of a run down area with other Inns in area boarded up, so trade must be tough.
Noise proofing of room was non existent so every noise from streets and neighbours felt like they were in room with me.
I wasn't expecting the Ritz but just basics would be nice. Had to ask for some disposable cup.
For the price it was fine, but it did feel like one of those places in those police dramas, that inevitably are the scene of crime or where you would hide out. :)

I did not like the look of the room when I checked in. I also did not like the customer service. I checked in, saw the room, and decided it would be better for me to stay somewhere else. All of that took barely five minutes. The person at the front desk refused to give me a refund for the night when I only stayed five minutes. I also am wary of the liability waiver I had to sign- they mentioned that I wouldn't hold them liable for possible BEDBUGS. Further, I was not fully assured of the safety of my private information. They made copies of my credit card and drivers license, and were dismissive when I wanted affirmations that the information would be destroyed. All in all, I was not pleased with my \"stay\" there, and am especially upset that they refused my refund for a nights stay when I was only there for 5 minutes.

First there was only two shower towels and no hand towels, both of them had visible stains. When I asked for more towels they said they didn’t have any. The listing also said there was a refrigerator but there wasn’t one in the room and when I asked about it they just said nobody was there who can help with that. I had a reservation for 4 days and on the 2nd night I found bed bugs in my bed as well which I took pictures of. When telling the shorter Asian man at the counter about the bed bugs he seemed completely unfazed and just said sorry we are not liable and it makes me think they know about the bed bugs and are not doing anything about it. The younger girl at the counter also would be sitting in the lobby during the posted open hours with the door locked. She would talk to me through the glass and seemed to get frustrated when I said I can’t hear her over the traffic which is just rude. The hotel itself was very dirty and even my front door lock didn’t work properly. The dead bolt keyhole from the outside was chewed up so the key could not be entered so I could not lock my door safely when leaving my hotel room. Ontop of that the door itself was so crooked the door barely shut and with just the doorknob lock keeping it shut I’m very confident anybody can easily kick my door in and steal my belongings. My stay at this hotel was horrible and I wouldn’t recommend it to anybody. I checked out and went to the Holiday in next door and had an extremely better experience there.

First of all says free breakfast but there’s no breakfast it also says free Wi-Fi but the Wi-Fi is rarely working. So When I got in the room it seemed fine but then we looked at the clean house in there and they had food stains. I understand it’s hard to fully clean white towels but they looked dirty. I went to the front desk to ask for clean towels and they told me that they didn’t have any at the front desk or that they couldn’t get any that I needed to find a housekeeper and ask them for one. I asked the housekeeper and she mentioned that it’s every other day that they can give us clean towels therefore she was not gonna give us clean ones. Clean towels is a basic necessity at a hotel I couldn’t shower for two days. The front desk person just kept mentioning that it’s a very cheap hotel one of the cheapest in the city therefore that was her excuse for the towels being dirty. If you stay here bring your own towels and bedsheets since one of the bedsheets also had a boot print on it.

The bathroom had hooks for towel bar but no towel bar. The blankets on both beds were dirty and had holes in them. I walked in and immediately walked right out. Front desk staff didn’t switch rooms or offer new sheets so I left and went to the holiday inn next door. Expedia didn’t help at all I called twice as soon as I checked in.
