Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
There was no staff on duty all weekend, no soap in my room, no clean towels and zero amenities that were promised in the advertising. That so-called hotel was little more than a flophouse for the homeless in Alexandria. It is a disgrace that Hotels.com even lists it at all. I am demanding my money back for this stay.

Get Out!

This was the worst hotel stay I've ever had. The place is a disaster. There wasn't even a roll of toilet paper in the bathroom. Not one single sheet of toilet paper. Noisy. Traffic noise, dogs barking, sketchy people yelling. I would never come back to this place. I did not feel safe.

Bed sheets and pillows were dirty from prior user. Towels were mix matched and rest on the toilet seat insted of on a rack. Room had a dirty stench. Bed spread had holes and drapers were poorly hung. Roof was covered with a black plastic tarp. The entire hotel was a wreck and needs to condemed until renovated.

The room was shabby - to be expected for the price. But even at $50, i expect a clean room with working amenities. The outlet that i could reach did not hold the plug, so were a fire hazard. I pulled back the bed cover, and there was a big stain that looked like blood. The sheets had something that looked like cigarette ashes on them. I decided to sleep on top of the bottom sheet, and since there was neither a duvet nor a blanket, i wore my coat and socks to bed. Good thing i had those. The heater blew only cold air. Woman screaming in the next room at 3 am. Fortunately, i was already awake. Dogs started at 6 am. Trucks all night. Toilet paper ran out. That was the most miserable night ive ever spent.

Disliked: Amenities
Not a good place to stay. The bathroom looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time . The toilet, sink basin, and tub looked like they’d had the bare minimum cleaning but the walls and door were dirty. Yellow drip marks on the outside of the sink, some on the toilet and the floor was sticky. The main door to the room locked ok but there was a small gap between the door and frame even when it was closed. There was an adjoining room at one time and that door was sealed with a towel and a sock shoved into the gap at the top of that door. Yes, a sock. Also the smoke detector had been removed. On top of that, there were some unsavory businesses being conducted out of some of the rooms. Overall, definitely not a place you want to take your family, especially kids.
