Waste of $70+

This hotel is a scam, you book the rooms and they say you’ll receive your info to get in by email 24hrs in advance, then you don’t get any emails, and their voicemail is generic and they don’t respond. It needs to be removed from your app.

I cancelled my booking upon arrival. The location is sketchy with a couple of homeless people hanging out just outside of the hotel. No functioning lobby nor reception desk and no staff to assist. Totally feels unsafe.

Never got to stay at the property it was day before Christmas Eve and the person who checks you in were at a family function. Not her fault at all. Shouldn’t really be available on Expedia if you can’t actually check in

Did not stay. Place was like a crack house. Unbelievable you would have this listed as a "hotel" on your site. On top of that the fee was "non refundable". Still waiting for a possible refund as we did not stay at the location.

Someone was passed out in the doorway. The door was locked. No one was at the property. The phone number to call had a full mailbox. Maybe the worst accommodations I've seen in my decades of travel.

Only good for crash pad

Place was okay not the greatest good for crack pad only… Fire alarm went off at 3:30 in the morning we had to leave building for 30 mins due to people on top floor smoking in their unit. I wouldn’t go back.

I reserved it but didn't stay there. When I arrived in the morning there was no one available to check me into the room i booked. I waited at the bar 4 hours while the bartender kept trying to reach the Hotel manager by phone with no luck at all, so i gave up and left.

The bath tub was dirty with hair and black dirt? And crud. It looked liked it hasn’t been cleaned in years. Noisy until 2am when the bar shut down for the night. Floors in the room were also dirty, look like no room service was ever provided.

don't go there. I had booked for a room with bathroom and we received a room with shared bathroom. the wifi doesn't work, it's dirty, no air conditioning and too hot to sleep well. there was a door in our room that we couldn't lock that led to the next room. the neighbors could open it!

We came on August 2022 for 3 night, the owner did not showed up, as a result we where unable to get to our place. as the place was closed. Obviously, we had to paid in advance as was requested by the site but where forced to look for another place with are a family with 2 kids. The same issue was for all 3 days- finally after a long struggle we were able to get our money back but without even saying sorry for the inconvenience. Highly un recommended - save your money for different place

Don't book this hotel

I booked this hotel for employees going on a business trip and didn't notice I'd booked the wrong day. I called less than an hour after I made the booking, escalated things to Hotels.com customer support, and I never heard back from this hotel, they don't pick up the phone, they don't have a refund, our money basically was stolen because I could not get in touch with them for an adjustment. This is ridiculous customer service and I have no idea why this place is still listed on Hotels.com. Shame on you Port Hotel, and shame on you Hotels.com.
