Cleanliness:
There was a spider living in the window.
Staff & service:
Check in took a while, and later they had to reconfirm who I was, as they had apparently forgotten my room had been booked by me. I won't say they weren't trying, but they were incompetent.
Property condition & facilities:
The whole place felt like an impoverished apartment hastily converted into a hotel. I never could get the elevator to work. Bathtub drain couldn't be closed. Sound insulation was practically non-existent, and I had to lie awake until 3:00am for someone else in the building to stop playing really loud rap music. Even then, the windows didn't really shield you from outside noises. The door lacks a swing bar lock and felt flimsy, which wasn't a good sign in a hotel with a sign saying they weren't responsible for stolen items. I won't go as far as to say it was unsafe, but it certainly felt that way.
Area around the property:
Skid Row.
Don't what category this goes under, but it also felt kind of sketchy that they didn't allow visitors.
