No vacancy

Upon arrival, I was informed that they didn’t have a room for us and that we would have to cancel our reservation. Not sure what the point of a reservation is if it doesn’t guarantee a room.

This property was AWFUL. The facility was run-down and dilapidated. There was a leak directly over the check-in counter. Our reservation was cancelled by the manager without informing us prior to our check-in attempt. I was told it was because the cleaning ladies didn’t want to clean all the rooms.

NOTHING like the photos!!

We booked online from Kansas. When our guys got to the hotel, they could immediately tell that the photos online did not accurately match with the inside. There was no one behind the counter or in the lobby but there was a sign up on the desk that said NO vacancies, please call who you booked with to get a refund. And then when I called a different hotel right down the road, I was told OYO is not even operational even though they rent rooms.

Just no

The hotel it’s self is in desperate need of repairs. The hotels air conditioning wasn’t working. There were dirty towels on the floor outside our room. Inside our room it smelled of old smoke, even though it was non smoking. We also weren’t provided with any towels. The outlets had no covers on them. We saw roaches in the bathroom as well.

Horrible

I wouldn’t know we left. OYO was horrible I would never recommend it. I walked into the room and walked right back out. The room smelled like cigarettes. There was blood on the bed. Beds were not made right, there was cigarette ashes all over the beds. Pillows were missing. Beds were not made right. Roaches were crawling on the walls , there was some dead already.

Hotel hasn't seen a repair crew in decades

This hotel has clearly been through quite a few hands and hasn't seen any love in a LONG time. The front automatic doors are no longer automatic. The lobby was not air conditioned. When we checked in, there was no quality of service and very little info provided. The site said there was free breakfast, but we were never told about it and have no idea if it was really available. There were leaks everywhere. The landscaping has grown over the building. And room linens are bargain basement thin. The walls haven't seen paint in ages. There are two better choices right next door.

I booked a cabin. Went by the property and was told they were still cleaning. At that time they did not say no cabin. Then they ran me around in the dark there were no room numbers. Then they sent me to one that had the bed broke down furniture in the middle of the floor. Then they gave me one smelled of ueine. After that the new desk pwrson went all over the property herself to find a decent eoom. And after i got in i couldnt see because the lights didnt work. Room 193 143 501 and dinalky 607 . Trash. Should never be allowed to rent. Appears abandoned .

Disastrous & Traumatic Experience

This entire experience with OYO was a ripoff and disaster. I would not recommend this place to my worse enemy. There was no record of our payment via Affirm. The front desk staff was unprofessional in appearance, along with another female who hovered in the background in flip flops and socks. Totally unprofessional! In addition, there was no air conditioning in the lobby, only 2 commercial fans. The exterior of the hotel was pitiful…gardens needed attention with weeds showing everywhere. Nothing at all positive to say about our experience. We requested a refund from Affirm and luckily received it. After driving 12 hours non-stop from FL to LA, this was a traumatic experience. Luckily, we had friends who offered accommodation. On a scale of 1 - 10, and 10 being the highest, I rate OYO, MINUS 100 Please DON’T put anyone else through this deceit and torture. NB: All pictures shown of the hotel were fake and had no resemblance to reality.

We got there on Friday 7/28 to check in and they had a sign on the door ”Closed due to water damage”. I was never contacted to let me know. They just let me get to the property thinking I had a place to stay and nope. Nada. Expedia took care of us but this place is terrible!!

I called 3 wks in advance and spoke with property manager to inquire about renovations and give them a chance after seeing bad reviews. BIG mistake!!! This hotel is worse than reviews say. Manager outright lied saying pool area had been renovated and remodeled sections were very clean. Girl at the desk said there hasn't been water in the pool the whole 10 months she has worked there. Seriously looked like we were stepping into a horror movie!

DO NOT STAY HERE!

*****DO NOT STAY AT THIS "HOTEL"!!!!**** The homie at the front desk scammed us and took our money. I had a week booked here and had called the front desk lady the day of my checking telling her I was going to be late. I had the call record on my phone! When I arrived at the hotel someone had marked me as a no show. The homie at the front desk would not let me check in since someone marked me as a no show. I even showed him my phone record telling him I let shawniqua know I was going to be late and he said yeah that's our phone number. STILL wouldn't fix the issue. This place is a dump. The "staff" smell like weed and won't help you out when the issue is on their staff messing up a week long booking. Stole my money and wouldn't let me check in. Negative 5 stars. You've been warned. You get what you pay for. Stay elsewhere!!

After reserving my two rooms a day before the hotel still rented them out to other customers and we did not have a place to stay nor did the hotel accommodate us. They said my money should be returned by Expedia and even when contacting Expedia they did not do anything to help me out. I have always used Expedia for past hotel stays and flights but with this experience I don’t think I will continue to use them for future bookings

My husband showed up at OYO to find people working on their cars in the parking lot. Then, when he got inside, they had no record of his reservation. So, he had to drive clear across Monroe so that he could stay at a decent motel. Supposedly Expedia and the motel are working on a refund.

To start checking in was terrible. There were two ladies at the front desk talking about stuff not related to work. Kept me waiting for over 15 mins to check in. This Hotel shouldn’t be in business it barely functions. Parking lot dark, the automatic door doesn’t open so you have to manually open amd close. Used condoms at the hallway. In the room you will fins roaches, dirty almost sticky carpet, them rooms really need to be remodeled. Tub clogs i mean the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed hands down
