1 Unbiased Traveler Review

Stay Away
member icon You've been warned
Posted Aug 23, 07 by tiredtravelperson, 1 reviews 
35 year old man with a moderate budget, traveling for business

I booked with this hotel because of the rate compared with other hotels in the area. The old adage "you get what you pay for" describes this hotel to a tee.

I am writing this review as I *don't* sleep at hotel 140. Why don't I sleep? Well, for one, about once an hour I get treated to some unexplainable noise, roughly akin to a sledgehammer hitting a shotgun shell. Then, with about the same amount of frequency, I'm treated to the groaning of pipes.

There are some other things about this hotel, in addition to unexplained and loud noises, that cause me to seriously warn folks about staying here:

First, there is no interior lock on my door. That's right, no way for me to lock my door from the inside. Anyone with a master key could walk right in. I could've sworn that was a legal requirement. Secondly, when I turned down my sheets, I found two neatly placed hairs...neither of which were my own. I honestly believe that these sheets were not changed. At the very least, those changing the sheets aren't being very sanitary.

Finally, the term "boutique" is really a deception. It's not trying to define the hotel as "quaint"...it's a warning term that these rooms are very, very small. You want a desk to work at? Forget about it. A closet for your clothes? Not at this hotel.

Ok. You've been warned. If you book inspite of all this, best of luck to you.
