Booked a room via ChoiceHotels. We arrived around 10pm to check-in only to find out that our reservations were canceled since they had no rooms at the time when we reserved. That mess was sorted out and we were finally given a room. The hotel overall was poorly maintained -- there was ABC gum on a section of the lobby counter left by some nasty; the hallway carpets were stained in huge sections all over the place (I saw some weirdo walking around barefoot on this same carpet); the hotel passagewayssmelled like cigarette smoke; the non-carpeted floor looked like it never seen a mop; I found a dead cockroach in my room; and the fridge had never been defrosted and had mold growing all over the insulated parts. Only stayed there for one night, but I guess you get what you pay for. My cousin and I paid $60/night, but it was a nasty and disgusting place -- very unsanitary and poorly kept. The genius behind the counter should minimize the small talk as well as (1) clean his hotel and (2) be more selective about who stays in the hotel (i.e. non-criminals or drug addicts) if he wants to keep his business. Oh yeah, free wi-fi was advertised but that actually means "no internet." FREE WI-FI = NO INTERNET.
