I made the mistake of staying at this wretched dump in March with some buddies as a stopover from Phoenix to Mexico.
Apparently, this hotel is actually a "Hote", according to the sign in front that would be more at home in 1930's occupied France. And while the lobby was nice, any indication that the rest of the hotel was the same went right out the window at the "elevator", which miraculously still works given that it's powered by a hamster on a wheel. When we get to the floor our room is on, our attempts to navigate the dingy, dimly lit corridor with unevenly padded carpeting lead us to a door with a lock that Jimmy Bond would have trouble opening.
The room was by far the worst I've ever seen. I couldn't see more than $15 of a renovation in it. From the poorly re-epoxied tub that was peeling to the Salvation Army-spec furniture, this place was a total bust. The beds were seemingly fashioned out of concrete slabs, with potatosack-esque linens thrown on for good measure. Pretty much everything you see in the ads for this run down toilet is wrong; it's a dump and not worth half of what they are charging a night.
Breakfast consisted of some snot like eggs, cold cereals (can't screw that up, I guess), old fruits and some random breads and bagels. The dining room on the top floor is a real treat, with the same caliber of abused furniture and quality fixtures you find in the rest of the place. Aside from the great view of the city from the top floor, this place is a complete waste of time and money!
Other reviewers that give this dump any credibility must have extremely low standards or stayed somewhere else. I don't see how anyone could give this place any sort of praise.
