After running the A/C for abit I called front desk to say it wasn’t cooling the room. 2 staff came up and said it’s because I’m on the second floor and it’s hot outside. One offered to move me to a different room but it didn’t have a kitchenette which I booked. I chose to stay there and she said she’d follow up in the morning and do something; no one checked in with me again. I had asked if they had a fan but they didn’t. The room had cobwebs with a spider in it on the light, a dead hornet on the artwork and stains on the bedsheets. There was no cleaning service provided and when I asked for towels I was told I had to bring my wet ones to the desk to get new. I saw hskp staff walk by my room. I paid $87night for 3 nights. When I checked out I had to sit and wait for the staff to go check my room I assume to ensure I hadn’t damaged or stole anything even though they had taken $200 pre-auth on my card. I travel a lot and have never been asked to wait for my room to be checked.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
There were people smoking and drinking outside their room, despite a posted policy forbidding it. The man cleaning up the parking lot joked with them, picked up garbage and moved on. The bathroom floor and room floor had built up grime from it not being mopped properly. The television and cable were unplugged and the remote had dead batteries. There was no coffee available in the room. When I asked for a late check-out (1 hour more) it was refused even though I gave up a kitchenette room for a regular one. If you can get a room at the Western Budget, stay there instead!
