The hotel has been rented to Egyptian guy. We got to the hotel and we were told we will be sharing a bathrooms with other guest. i advise the front desk clerk i made my reservation for room with a view and will not be sharing bathroom with other guest. The hotel in under new ownership and the Egyptian guy sits at the entrance watching the guest( very uncomfortable and creepy and he is a chain smoker). a skinny dark skinned guy. The hotel has changes its name. Was not easy to locate. there are no signs showing the location of the hotel. The online advertisement are false. There is no hot water Expedia needs to review the hotel posting of amenities. What is advertised is false.
