Be
aware
-
this
"hotel"
goes
by
the
name
of
"Richmond
Magnuson
Grand
Hotel"
&/or
"Akaza
Hotel
Richmond"
&/or
"Speco
Hotel"
&/or
"Hotel
I-64".
That's
right
-
they
have
*4
DIFFERENT
NAMES*
they
might
be
listed
under.
My
initial
guess
is
to
throw
off
potential
customers
from
seeing
the
ABUNDANCE
OF
HORRIBLE
reviews
they
have!
That
being
said
-
Horrendous!!
This
is
the
worst
hotel
I've
ever
stayed
in
in
my
life.
The
linens
in
our
room
were
FILLED
WITH
OLD
GROSS
SET-IN
STAINS.
Blood
stains,
food
stains,
etc.
(I
provided
pics)
I
was
"assigned"
this
hotel
via
Hotwire
(the
first
time
I've
ever
been
so
turned
off
by
the
cut
rate
hotel
Hotwire
assigned
me
that
I
vow
to
never
use
the
"Hot
Rate"
option
again!)
After
realizing
the
hotel
Hotwire
assigned
to
me,
I
researched
online.
All
of
the
awful
reviews
I
read
were
well-deserved
of
this
hotel.
First
off,
when
you
check-in,
there
is
a
$50
CASH-ONLY
deposit
you
have
to
give
them
for
security.
ALSO,
you
pay
a
$3
CASH-ONLY
fee
that's
called
a
"tourism
fee".....
Ummm.....yeah,
okay.
SMFH.
I
knew
from
all
other
reviews
that
these
people
try
to
stick
you
on
the
$50
deposit
the
next
morning
at
check-out
by
trying
to
blame
you
for
all
the
nastiness
in
the
room
THAT
WAS
THERE
FROM
GET-GO!
So
-
we
brought
OUR
OWN
towels/wash
cloths/hand
towels
&
pillows.
First
thing
I
did
upon
entering
the
room
was
check
for
bed
bugs.
Then
began
to
inspect
the
linens.
Old
set-in
stains
on
everything.
(see
my
pics)
Stains
that
NO
housekeeping/management
in
THEIR
RIGHT
MIND
should
allow
to
be
put
on
clean
beds.
I
made
sure
to
return
to
the
front
desk
to
show
the
ladies
(both
named
Shannon)
my
pictures
and
make
sure
it
was
noted
*I*
had
pics
and
that
*I*
was
not
responsible
for
ANY
of
it.
Next
morning
at
check-out.
Lady
behind
the
desk
sent
an
old
maintenance
guy
up
to
"check"
our
room.
SMH.
Old
dude
came
back,
saying
something
to
the
lady
behind
the
counter
and
I
heard
her
say,
"Yeah,
well
you
know
some
people
actually
bring
their
own
towels.
Maybe
that's
what
they
did."
I
wanted
to
say
SO
BAD
yeah
that's
what
I
did
when
I
read
previous
reviews
where
people
say
you
try
to
charge
$10
for
someone
using
a
towel.
Got
our
$50
"deposit"
back
and
got
out
that
place
so
fast
it'd
make
your
head
spin.
Quick
run
down
of
other
"stuff".
Front
desk
associates
were
nice
enough
but
were
dressed
in
regular
street
clothes
-
yoga
pants
&
hoodies.
The
elevator
was
in
extremely
bad
shape.
And
only
1
of
the
2
elevators
was
working.
There
were
gross
very
visible
stains
on
curtains
in
the
front
lobby
hallways
in
front
of
the
elevators.
(Like,
seriously!
Why
are
they
still
using
linens
with
gross
stains???)
Hallway
on
our
floor
(floor
4)
smelled
like
old
industrial
strength
public
bathroom
cleaner.
Better
than
smelling
like
pee
or
poop
but
barely.
There
was
crayon
stain
marking
all
over
one
of
the
walls
in
our
room.
The
mirrors
looked
like
they've
never
been
windexed.
The
tv
got
maybe
10
channels.
Lastly
-
the
air.......
we
put
the
cold
air
on
high,
continuous
fan
yet
the
room
never
got
cold.
When
I
took
a
shower,
the
heat
and
condensation
from
my
shower
took
over
the
whole
room.
I
could
not
imagine
how
hot
the
room
would
have
been
if
it
was
middle
of
summer.
So,
yes,
it
was
inexpensive.
I
stay
in
2
or
2.5
star
hotels
plenty
throughout
the
year
(I'm
cheap
like
that)
so
I
understand
"you
get
what
you
pay
for".
YET
-
I
have
never
written
a
review
like
this
in
my
life
but
I
HAD
to
share.
This
place
needs
to
be
shut
down.
Awful,
awful,
awful!
I
am
contacting
the
BBB
as
well
as
the
Health
Department
about
this
establishment.
