Ivy City Hotel

Even with the lights on roaches were running across the floor

Pros: The parking Cons: Cock roaches everywhere

Disaster

Pros: Terrible dirty place. While checking in some random lady asked for my id to book a room for her. The room was terribly dirty. Dead roaches. The sheets were sticky. I didn’t even dare to take shoes off. Dirt everywhere. Smells like wet and humid. Couldn’t stay there more than 10 min. Checked out instantly. The receptionist didn’t even asked what was wrong when I come to check out. There are plenty of better options few minutes away. Cons: Nothing

We did not feel safe enough to stay at this property and booked another hotel instead.

Pros: Unfortunately, we did not end up staying at the property. Cons: We decided not to stay at this hotel after our friends arrived before us and told us about several serious concerns. They reported finding bugs in the room and feeling very unsafe in and around the property. They also had an alarming encounter with people who appeared to be homeless, who asked for our IDs and tried to get access to our room. After hearing what happened, we did not feel safe coming to the hotel at all and booked another hotel instead. It was a very concerning experience.

Can do better

Pros: Clean Cons: questionable characters wandering around No security check No safe feeling

Good Place for a Short Stay

Pros: The room was comfortable for a one- or two-night stay, and the parking was very convenient. The location was also good for avoiding heavy traffic. Cons: As soon as we entered the room, we found a live cockroach in the middle of the floor. I understand that this can happen, but it was unpleasant for that to be our first impression of the room.
