After checking in to my room, I unpacked my bag and headed out for the evening. When I returned, there were two new guests in my room! With my stuff! It all got sorted out eventually, my things were collected and I was reassigned another room. The hotel reimbursed me for one nights’ stay after I suggested both nights should be comped.

The entire building smelt TERRIBLE of weed. There were multiple people smoking it outside too. The 4th floor hallway looks like it hasn’t been vacuumed in months. It was absolutely gross. Sketchy people outside begging for cigarettes. At one point my mom went down to the lobby and the front desk attendant was PASSED OUT. please do NOT bring your children here. It didn’t feel safe at all.
