Check-in was a breeze. The room looked okay at first, no cobwebs or anything. But, it was a double, not the king.I booked. Then I discovered the bathroom door would only close with a mighty heave. And I noticed the bloodstains on the wall next to the toilet. Well, I hope they're blood... And the grand finale, the inside door handle is about to fall off. Okay, off to bed.
The included breakfast buffet was actually pretty decent. I didn't try the omelet station, the line was too long. A visit with one of our friends staying at the same hotel revealed that they had a refrigerator. We didn't. But there was a nice hole for one.
The air conditioning works in a way. Yes, it does cool, but the thermostat is obviously waaaaay off. In order to get the room to a comfortable 78F or so, I ended up turning the thermostat down to 61
Housecleaning staff was kind of surly. If you aren't out of your room when they come knocking, it doesn't get cleaned that day. So eat up and get out and stay out until dark at least.
On the plus side, the location is pretty good for tourists. And there's a Dominick's grocery store (Safeway or Von's in other parts of the country) across the street.
