| - If I could give this hotel zero stars I would. But yelp makes you star. This hotel was a sleaze fest.
Lets set the scene shall we, upon arrival, my boyfriend and I immediately say.. Uhoh... We go inside and check in and the gentleman at the front desk was very nice, then he said " if you wanna park your car outside your window just to keep an eye on it, that's cool" were thinking oh sh+* we actually need to watch our car if we stay here!? Then he answers the phone and its a call about bed bugs from an existing occupant. Gross. Then he tells the owner, there are bed bugs in a lot of rooms. I don't think he thought we could hear him. We could. At this point we should have walked away. But we were trying to be good sports and go with what we had already booked.
We get into our room and its gross. Huge but gross. I literally drive to target and purchase Clorox wipes, wet wipes, hand sanitizer and ear plugs. After cleaning all of the surfaces at 3pm. We left..
Returning that night for sleep,
There were "escorts" in and out all night. Girls on cell phones in fights with their "baby daddy" "POS husband/boyfriend/girlfriend" People outside of our window at 1,2,3,4am talking as loud as possible. Someone was banging on our door at 3am and when I got up they were gone. We had stains on our sheets and roaches in our room. I did not want to get in the bed for fear of bed bugs. Sure enough the room next to us was infested with bed bugs. Our second night here my boyfriend and I were honestly contemplating going to target to purchase an air mattress some pillows and a blanket and sleeping on the floor in the back of his shop in old town. That's how bad it was. We ultimately decided to just bite the bullet since we had already paid and went back.
Upon our return to our hotel, we were pulled over and questioned by the Tempe Police Department. I was told that they see a lot of illegal activity coming in and out of this hotel and they just wanted to spot check. The TEMPE POLICE DEPARTMENT was great and once I was informed that they circle the parking lot almost every hour, I felt a little bit safe.
I finally slept that night because of my encounter with the police. The next morning, it took over an hour to get checked out because the front desk manager on duty forgot to put her makeup on and was sitting outside in her car doing said makeup. So we just waited until she thought she was "ready" to check us out.
Run as fast as you can from this property! What they don't tell you until you get there is that this is a privately owned hotel doing business as Ramada inn. So it's not a Ramada and it has no standards. Save yourself the discomfort and hassle, book somewhere else. Its worth the extra money to go elsewhere. Honestly unless you're in the market for drugs and hookers, steer clear.
