Booked one night through Amex for what seemed like a good price for the location. But what a very false economy this proved to be!!
After checking in initially with a receptionist who I found surly and abrupt, I went to the room I had been allocated and was confronted with a bizarre sight. Dirty bed sheets were piled up in one corner. There were no pillows. And the mattress for the bed was propped up in another corner. I returned to the reception desk to complain. The receptionist gave me a replacement room, but not before she entertained me by making a viciously angry and abusive phone call to a colleague in front of me!
Parking was cheap ($4 per day) - although there was no prior notification of the parking charges and they led me to believe that it would be free.
The swimming pool was laughably small - I figure they must have had it installed as cheaply as possible simply so that they could advertise the fact that they have a swimming pool.
And parked in the car park was a vehicle from a local pest control service - if I had noticed it at the time this would have been an ominous portent of what was to come!
As the walls between adjacent rooms are almost paper-thin, I was woken in the night at 2AM by people in a neighbouring room. And I was then woken again, strangely, by someone randomly banging on room doors at 3AM. Quite possibly this someone had come straight off the street - the door from the car park had been propped open and so, with no security, the corridors of the hotel were accessible by anyone from the street!
This experience was then capped off by an unpleasant attack of bedbugs, which, as I now in hindsight see from the other reviews on this website, no stay at this hotel would be complete without.
I complained in the morning to the manager, who I found to have a discourteous and somewhat aggressive demeanour. Basil Fawlty-like, he started ranting about people like me who book online, get a discounted room rate, and how he would have to put a stop to this discounting as they would go out of business if everyone else had the audacity to get accommodation at such cheap rates!!
