The staff was.. competent. But I only saw one lady that checked me in, after-hours. I had to call a number on the lobby phone to summon someone to the desk behind the metal-roll-door.
The lighting outside was awful. The ONE light over the front door was flickering in a way the reminded me of a horror movie. The whole area screamed, "I'm in danger." (In a Ralph Wiggum voice)
Came across 2 roaches. One in the shower when naked, and one fell one me as I exited the bathroom.
The floor was made of cheap laminate that felt grimy with every step. Couldn't stand to go barefoot for even 2-3 steps.
The air conditioner was flaky and kept things either too cold and so humid it was impossible to sleep. Quite noisy with all the on-off.
The room location was right near a stairwell that I'm not sure was in use, but it sounded like someone was slamming the door shut every 15-20 minutes.
The elevator looked like something out of a Russian apartment complex. Dingy, flickery lighting, mis-matched paint everywhere. Exactly as I remember my trip to Russia in 2003.
Sure, OK, it's Orlando. Everything is expensive, and you get what you pay for, but this place needs some sprucing up, NOW.
It's an extended-stay, so I have no basis for comparison, but apparently they only do 'linens' once a week, and there was a sign up that says, sorry, we can't do linens this week, there's a laundromat in such and such a location. Thanks for understanding!
