would not stay here again.. Liked: Nice employees Disliked: don’t trust the photo’s! once me and my family got there everything was burnt out, rooms are soo small and bed is too close to the door that it doesn’t open all the way so you can’t even get in the right way. my window view was literally a brick wall with no ventilation and to top it off we had NO AC, in either room *I booked 2* there’s a ac box in the room to ‘turn it on’ but it didn’t even do anything I think it was just for decoration. so it was just hot inside our rooms. the area was soo bad, so definitely do your research. there was a lot of trash outside the rooms, bad pee smell when walking in the building, floors creek so bad I would honestly just not book here unless you are desperately looking for something last minute and cheap like I did. I get the “you get what you pay for” but man for $160 I would’ve expected something at least a little better then this..

Liked: Nothing Disliked: There was no bathroom, there was blood on the walls and ceiling, the window was bolted open, it was so dirty, even the sheets were disgusting, the headboard waa crooked dirty and falling down, no parking, wen I got there I saw the room, and immediately asked for a refund, the front desk told me I had to contact booking.com and so I did and they told me to wait for a call back which I did, and then they told me they couldn't do anything it was up to the hotel to refund me the money. I then went back to the office and told them and they said since it had been an hour i was stuck with the room or I had to call booking.com. it was the worst customer service I will never use booking.com or the bay hotel again!
