Did not find fresh clean sheets, having asked the front desk lady the schedule of housekeeping, left the room, came back and the room was not cleaned. Old and badly kept building. Lack of cleanliness. Not nice neighborhood. Would not recommend this htl to anyone.

Your internet did not work in my room. I had to constantly take my computer to the front desk to get reception. This was terrible for anyone who has work and communications to accomplish after checking in to your hotel.

The room was clean, but the fixtures were outdated. There were rust spots on the closet door. The refrigerator hum was noticeable. There was also an odor, like maybe the carpeting is aged.
