The deck clerk checked me in, but was in no way friendly, helpful or proactive; she didh't write my room number down, I later had to ask for the wifi password and no mention of any hotel amenities, breakfast serving time, etc. I guess you get what you pay for.... L~

The hotel itself is absolutely horrendous. As soon as we walked in to both rooms, roaches were everywhere. From top to bottom there were roaches on the bed, on the walls, in the bathroom, and the most ironic place of all was on our welcome card. We left immediately and went to the front desk for help but all they said was to contact the third-party website that we used to book the rooms for the refund. Absolutely no help at all. Do not waste your time here.
