The property was only 1 mile from our convention center, HOWEVER, no note was given to the fact that the direct road that led to the convention center was under construction causing the commute to be greater than 45 minutes. When cancellation was requested due to the extreme commute, the property STILL charged the fees. Also, the property is in an obvious gang infested area. The safety of ourselves and our property was definitely in question. Finally, the property was obviously very poorly maintained and the cleanliness of the rooms was in immediate question upon entering the lobby, I never saw the rooms but the lobby was a poor recommendation as to their state.
