The staff was so super nice. Message to the management: DON'T HAVE SHIFT CHANGE AT 3PM (check-in time), especially if you aren't allowing early check-ins. I can't believe how nice the staff was considering what a mess the night shift had to come into.

the power of the hotel seems to be unstable, the power went out on a Saturday morning, ot went from 8am to 12 pm. i couldn't take a shower or charge my electronics, it was very disruptive, and on top of that the hotel refused to give any compensations dispite repeated asking. in the remining of my stay the power still flickers from time to time.

You get what you pay for. Whole building is in mediocre condition, hotel room wasn’t super clean, furniture was falling apart. Power went out for the whole hotel Saturday morning, thankfully shower still had hot water. When I asked about it they said it would be back on in an hour or two, had no other info. Don’t know why they don’t have an emergency backup generator? For somewhere to just sleep it was doable, and the walk to the convention center is pretty fast. Fairly certain someone clipped my car while it was in the Red Roof parking lot at some point as well. They sent me three different billing statements with different totals, but only charged me for the first one, so not sure what that’s about.

No electricity

Saturday morning, June 14 the electricity went out in the hotel around 8 o’clock in the morning and did not come back on until 2:30 in the afternoon. Which made us have to take our dogs with us wherever we went during that time because of the heat in the building

My toilet wasn't bolted to the floor. The room smells, the power went out for 12 hours with no communication on a resolution or offer of any kind of compensation. I had to prop my door open with a box because if i left, i wouldn't have been able to get back in with no power. The only reason this place survives is because of proximity to the convention center, so i paid $200/night and there's a nice breakfast area, but no food. Plus $19/day to park.
