I heard great things about this hotel but it didn't live up to its reputation. I would never stay here again. The decor was awful, you can tell it used to be an old apartment building, probably from the seventies. \n\nBut what really upset me is that they charged an early check-in fee... WHO DOES THAT! If a room is available by all means let a tired traveler in. \n\nI planned on paying about 125 plus tax  but I ended up paying well over 200 dollars for a mediocre hotel. They charge you for every they can possibly get away with. To top it off I left my extremely expensive flat iron in the room never to be found again I called and never heard back. SIGH\n\nThe only reason I would ever return to this hotel would be to eat at their restaurant.. I left Gallo Blanco a great review.
