Keycards would not work no matter how separate you kept them from cell phones and other cards. They wouldn’t work straight from checking in.
This place is just, not clean. My room had chewing gum on floor that no one had bothered to pick up, hair on the walls of the shower, stains on the chairs in the room, it just look half cleaned with dirty floors. Lots of ladybugs?!
The more worrying aspect of staying here is that I was given a room that had a door to an adjoining room, and the door was left unlocked. I of course locked this door immediately but repeatedly had both my entrance door and the joining room door messed with at different times. I had to yell at someone trying to use a keycard to get into my room by screaming THIS IS NOT YOUR ROOM.
So yeah, I don’t recommend staying here. It’s worth the extra expense to stay at the nicer option directly behind this hotel. I’m rarely spooked by your standard 3-4 floor hotel with interior hallways and continental breakfast. But it was dirty, out of date, and too many instances of people messing with my doors. Stealing my do not disturb tag also.
Checkout at 11am at that. Cleaning staff harassing you at 9:30am. Just, not good. I’m just your average 2 star hotel traveler. For this price range, it’s very disappointing.
