Please drop this establishment from your roster. This \"hotel\" doesn't deserve a star.
I had the manager change the bedsheets 4x because none of the bedsheets were pure white. They had cigarette burns, a big fluid stain, dried blood and shoe prints. No AC, I was told to keep windows open, ARE YOU FRICKIN KIDDING ME? I still was charged a 20 dollar deposit!!! I had to drive back to Las Vegas the same night, didn't want to have bedbugs riding home with me. PLEASE DROP THIS BUSINESS OFF YOUR ROSTER!!!

This place being offered by Hotels.com is ridiculous to say the least. Extremely wore down building. The water is contaminated it says right when you walk in. They do not have clean sheets when you ask for new ones they will not give you any they say “they all look like that”. Then the locals who live there are so dirty and inconsiderate. A fight broke out between the tenants a gun was pulled and the hotel refused to call police. The tenant actually told them to go back to their room. Yes the tenant with a weapon told the hotel workers what to do. Hotels.com needs to do do secret vacations just like secret shoppers and really see what type of hotels they are offering online cause people getting situations where they can’t afford to move to a new hotel. It was so hard for hotels.com to help me and my kids to get help with a new room the customer service was completely awful the last supervisor I spoke with actually understood entirely it took about 5 calls and being treated awful just to get help. I was very disappointed in hotels.com.

I hate their policy. They don’t have the sympathy or understanding they sometimes customer make mistakes by renting a place that is 45 minutes away from their destination. As soon as you call them to cancel, they took half of that percentage from your card. From my experience this is the first hotel that would charge your card right away whole other hotels, they won’t charge you until you check in. Never ever rent this place. Hm

This was a fraud of sorts.The hotel shown in the picture is not the same place I reserved online, paid, and stayed. The \"dump\" that was switched from the hotel in picture to dump located 825 W. Gardena was just that - a dirty dump. It was dirty, Dirty filthy RR down the hall was filthy. I req'd NO Smoking and there was strong smoke odor, Dirty sheets w hair and stains. No Closet or AC as was lied about. The used picture in this feedback in order to get ppl to stay bc if they had shown their true dump, no decent person(s) wld have paid anywhere near what was charged. I AM REQUESTING A REFUND. I would NOT have knowingly paid to rent such dirty dump. THIS WAS DECEPTION. The place I stayed is not the same as picture shown in this review. I previously stayed at hotel shown in picture and had no complaints as it was a decent hotel- this place was far from decent. I have pictures.

If not for the police being onsite trying to get someone who locked themselves in the bathroom for nearly 2 hours at midnight, but also another patron was arguing with management about them holding onto her property? The sink didnt drain, the fridge was room temperature. The worst single night in any motel Ive ever experienced. If the guy who checked me in seemed even coherent I may have complained, instead I will just never go there again.

Let's see, to begin with the hotel/motel wasn't worth the money they asked for at all. Secondly, they said that it was heated room and that's a lie, I had sleep in my clothes to stay warm. No microwave in the room it's left out in the hallway for people to cook raw meat in it, the one and only bathroom if it's occupied you're just outta luck. Management was very rude and I had to argue with them about putting me in a room that didn't have a broken smoke detector. Leaving my car outside had me worried because of the area and anyone off the street could come inside, because the door lock was taped down so it wouldn't lock. Nothing good about this place and I could have gotten my money back and went somewhere else.

Nightmare Hotel

So first of all when you get into the room there is no bathroom no tub you get only a sink and then they only give you one bath towel one tile for the floor and one washcloth when you ask for another set they say they can't give you another set because that's the only set that they can offer is what is already in the room as far as the bathroom it was one toilet for the men in that hotel and one toilet for the females
If someone decided to take a shower in the men's bathroom that toilet is located on the inside of that shower unit so once they close the door to that shower unit nobody in the hotel who was the male can use the restroom until whoever's in that shower comes out. this place is beyond horrible it's not even a real hotel it's literally rooms that they installed a sink into and a television in and a bed no air conditioning or heater unit whatsoever and these people really have the nerve to charge for regular Hotel prices and on top of that I do not care what language you speak but the fact of the matter I was speaking English to the people and everybody behind the counter acted like they did not understand English like this place is horrible. I had to constantly come outside to check on my car because there was a bunch of homeless people fighting in the streets all night I should have known what I was getting into when I showed up to the type of area plus this hotel offers no refunds I wonder why

I was not keen about being able to control the temperature in the room.

The bed was hard, however, I was able to get rest as I needed.

It was located pretty close to where I needed to work, so it was functional enough for me.

The lack of parking was an issue, but I was able to work around it.

Although there was no room service per se, I was able to get what I needed from the front desk.

The room was small, but usable for my purpose.

Security was important, so one had to be buzzed in to the building.

For the price, it served my purpose enough. It was clean for sure.m
