I booked based on the lovely pictures of the room online. Bright, inviting and cozy is what I was looking forward to but arrived to what couldn’t have been more opposite.
The lobby is cute and the woman at the desk was very nice, yet there was no attention to detail or comfort.
I lugged my bags up the stairs and into the lobby from the cab like I was checking into a hostel, which is ultimately more the vibe. No judgement on hostels, just wasn’t the expectation…
When I received my key, I went to the room and was met by dirty office type, dark grey carpet, a window against a brick wall with zero light, old haphazard furniture randomly placed, a tub with filth rings and water stains around old spa jets. The empty wall had a literal 10 inch flat screen just sitting there smaller than an IPad! I was certain I was going to win $100,000 if I didn’t lose my sh$t. I reluctantly sat on the bed to search for a new hotel for two nights, there was no way I was staying there. First, I went to ask her if there was a room that looked more like the pictures online, trust me this one is not shown! She said they were booked and that I couldn’t have a refund even though my room was like a punishment for something I had done in a past life. I went back and found The Gore Hotel and left. I lost all my money and was there for 30 minutes, didn’t even use the filthy bathroom. The vibe is not thoughtful or put together, very random and not even trying.
