A Nightmare Stay: The Worst Hotel Experience Ever
If I could give this place zero stars, I would. This was, without question, the most disgusting and poorly managed hotel I have ever stayed in. From the moment I stepped into my room, it was clear that cleanliness, maintenance, and customer service were completely nonexistent.
First, the blackout curtain rail was broken, leaving the heavy curtains barely hanging. Normally, that might not be a huge issue—except there was an extremely bright fluorescent light from outside blasting directly into my window all night long. This wasn’t just an annoying glow; this was like trying to sleep under a stadium floodlight. The light was supposed to illuminate the hotel’s exterior but was instead angled straight into my room, making it impossible to get any sleep. I had to resort to using a blanket to block the light because the staff didn’t care to fix it.
Speaking of the staff—when I went to the front desk to ask if something could be done, I was met with the most apathetic, unprofessional response imaginable: “Nothing I can do.” No apology, no attempt to solve the issue—just pure indifference.
Then, there was the hygiene—or complete lack thereof. The sheets and pillowcases were filthy. And by filthy, I mean:
• Visible clumps of human hair between the pillow and pillowcase
• Multiple stains on the pillowcases, sheets, and towels
• Yellow-stained towels that looked like they hadn’t been properly washed in ages
To top it off, the bathroom was a horror show. The bath tap was covered in grime, the countertop was stained, and the blow dryer didn’t work.
Adding to the discomfort, the entire lobby was filled with the overpowering smell of incense sticks burning non-stop. While I understand that burning incense may have cultural significance, a hotel lobby is not the place for it. The scent was so strong that it made the entire place feel suffocating. What someone chooses to do in their own home is their business, but forcing guests to endure this overwhelming smell is completely unacceptable in a shared public space.
In the morning, I went to the front desk again, hoping for at least some clean sheets and pillows. This time, a staff member named Gina gave me the most outrageous, insulting response: “When I travel, I bring my own bedsheets. You should do the same if you want to avoid dirty ones.” Since when is it normal for a hotel guest to have to bring their own bedding because the hotel refuses to provide clean ones?
As if the dirty room and dismissive staff weren’t enough, the entire atmosphere of the hotel felt unsafe. There were paramedics and police showing up randomly, and there were sketchy, rough people hanging around. It did not feel like a safe place to stay at all.
In short: This hotel is a disaster. Filthy rooms, broken fixtures, overpowering smells, incompetent and rude staff, and a complete disregard for guest comfort and safety. DO NOT STAY HERE.
