Never aqain.

Room 202 1.card never worked proper front lock assembly was duct taped apparently to secure it to the front door, the card key never worked properly to get the green light to open the front door, there was a towel under the a/c unit apparently to cach leaks from comdensation, all doors had chips and the complimentary bar of soap was displayed unwrapped. The linen, toilet, and tub looked clean enough to use. When reported to the manager about the card key issue he says call him and he'll give me access to the room. I don't see how you can sustain a business that way.

Big room minimal room-service

It was in a good area. The room was big but having knee issues, it was a 3 story building with no elevator. I stayed for 5 days/4 nites and room was only cleaned/bed made once during the stay. The bathroom plumbing is not the greatest. It was hard to flush if you did more than urinate and seemed like it wouldn't flush or would overflow. I told the mgr about it. Rather than attend to it himself, he had the audacity to hand ME the plunger to do it myself! NOT like I paid to stay or anything. SMH Also the roku tv was broken as there was some vertical line going thru the right side of the screen.

VERY disappointing

The reason im not giving this stsy at The Royal Inn, is due the room being somewhat clean an the reason for the somewhat is due to the TERRIBLE antiquated, rough looking, furnishings. HORRIBLE and there was only 1 usable television channel. Hoteks.com you need to be ashamed of your for advertising such facilities.
