The Hotel Garibaldi

Major road construction right in front of hotel. First room we received was adjacent to the road...crazy noisy. Asked to be moved...got a room backof the property...much better. Room was very nice on 3rd floor..but elevator was broken...so carrying bags up two flights of stairs. Breakfast was mediocre at best. Coffee ok.

When I checked in, the person took my credit card, which I thought was for incidentals, then charged it for the price of the room. I knew that I had already paid for the room, and he just said “no, it was just a hold“, when I could already see the charge on my bank account. I told him then in that case I wanted to change the card that paid for the room, and he told me he couldn’t because there was no manager working, and I should call tomorrow after I check out. When I asked him where the elevator was, he said it was broken, casually, and didn’t ask me if I needed a first floor room. When I got to my “non-smoking room“, the smell of smoke was so overwhelming. There were no curtains to cover the windows, just thin blinds that didn’t really block out the light. The neighborhood was good, and very easy to access and park in.

We arrived late, yet we were greeted by a friendly staff member. The room was very satisfactory and available coffee and maker was nice.

Past its prime. The Hotel Garibaldi got a lot of hype online so I booked it over a couple of places that looked better. It didn’t take long for the buzz to fade. The elevator was defunct. The road in front of the property was under construction with heavy equipment and people shouting at 6am. The room was small. The bathroom was so tiny that the door hit the sink whe less than half open. The tv was miniscule. The halls were loud. The grounds were run down and shopworn. At least the staff were polite. I would NOT recommend the Hotel Garibaldi.

Looked like they were understaffed. Had to wait in a line for about 10 minutes. Elevator wasn't working. Otherwise, the staff did their best to serve their customers.

Room was clean but smelled musty and like cigarettes. Saw some ashes on the table. Supposed to be non-smoking. Guess yiu cant control rude guessed that dobt follow the rules. Quiet hotel, good pool and hot tub. Sauna and elevator not working.
