WhenI arrived the lobby had a bad vibe: dingy, television on, the smell of fried food. I signed the form at the front desk, left my suitcase at the desk and went downstairs to look at the room. It was a corner room, below ground, with one window, which faced a concrete wall and a metal cabinet of some sort. In other words, a dungeon. I went back upstairs and it said I was sorry I could not stay; I had such a feeling of discomfort and unease, and stepped outside to make a phone call. The clerk came outside and said there was another room upstairs, but it was the same number of steep stairs, 18, up a narrow staircase. The photos posted online do not accurately reflect what the room actually look like: bait and switch. That strong smell of fried food pervaded the hotel although the dining area was closed. I regret signing the form at the desk before looking at the room, although I understood that no refunds were honored. I wish I had taken photos to post with my comments but I wanted to leave as quickly as possible. All I can say is the Belvedere hotel website misrepresents itself: false advertising.
