I don't normally do dumps but, I figured, what the hey, one night can't be that bad. It was actually my friend's idea to stay here. I was looking all over the internet for cheap but good hotels, and she found this one. I was originally going to stay in another one, which would be 30$ more, but my friend made me feel bad, because it was only going to be one night. A word to the wise: Never sacrifice comfort over price. Lesson Learned!
We were actually at the airport waiting for a good 40 mins, before the shuttle pulled in. Ironically we were making fun of all the old cars, saying that that must be our shuttle, funny thing when it pulled up it looked the same as the old cars. In the van, the lady told us that she didn't have any reservations for us. So I'm dying inside, and kinda upset too. I just knew what lay ahead. When we pulled up to the hotel, I literally said "are we there yet?". Upon entering, I noticed the crappy lobby. The front people were nice. After hoisting my luggage up steep large stairs, which I was told was only a couple, I walked down a very strange looking hall way, with absolutely no HEAT. To sum it up: the room was like ICE, the water smelled like a sewer, the shower took 15 literal minutes to heat up, I felt very icky in the bed, and brushing my teeth, the room's heater went up to 95 deg. and I was still freezing. Upon my trip to the airport, I happened to be in the front seat, and my hands were between my knees (in a decent manner) because they were cold and have poor circulation. I saw the bus driver eyeing my hands from the time we left the hotel, to the time we arrived at the airport. Flippin pervert!
Just don't ever go here. I would not even advise my worst enemy to go here. I still don't get how it managed to get 5 stars!
