Well this didn't start out so good. It's an unassuming hotel, looks like a converted small apartment complex with a small gate, wasn't sure if it was the front door so I rang the doorbell, and the guy came to answer the door, I asked him if this is the hotel, and he asked if I was a delivery guy. No, I'm checking in, and he didn't apologize, checked me in fine, very businesslike. He took my credit card for deposit and didn't say anything else. Then I get home and find a $15.97 charge on my card. I sent an email inquiry but 3 days later no response. I called them and the lady said it was a facilities fee but then she had to hang up because she was busy.
Aren't staff required to at least mention to you when they're charging something to your credit card?
I checked my Trip Details here on hotels.com and it does not mention any fee but on the hotel details page it does list it.
Room is OK but the blackout curtain is basically useless since so much light shines around the edges anyway. Touch panel is high tech but means you have to go all the way to the panel to turn the light on/off which seems unusual for a hotel when you have to get up and go that far from the bed.
The water seems heavily treated here, showers were really uncomfortable, no matter how much I rinsed or scrubbed, I could not get the soap feeling off. Even washing hands was really uncomfortable. This alone makes me want to stay elsewhere.
Pretty bad view of junk hoarders across the alley.
