Avoid this place at all costs.
My stay at Mirage Inn and Suites was one of the worst experiences I’ve had anywhere in the world. From arrival to departure, the entire experience was frustrating, unprofessional, and honestly shocking. If negative stars were possible, that’s what this place would deserve.
We were overcharged for both the room and the deposit, and trying to resolve it was a constant struggle. The front desk is rarely staffed—you have to ring a bell and wait, sometimes an unreasonable amount of time, just to get someone to acknowledge you. When staff do appear, they are unfriendly, dismissive, and lack even basic customer service. No greeting, no eye contact—just attitude.
The level of unprofessionalism throughout the property is unbelievable. Staff act as if helping guests is an inconvenience. Simple questions are met with irritation, and even basic requests feel like you’re asking too much. On multiple occasions, staff came to the front desk wearing nightgowns, which is completely inappropriate for a business setting and gives the impression that the place is being run casually out of living quarters rather than as a legitimate hotel.
The owner, an older man, was by far the most difficult and unpleasant part of the experience. He was rude, visibly irritated, and quick to raise his voice instead of offering solutions. Rather than addressing concerns, he avoided interaction altogether—refusing to come out from the back room when we asked for clarification about charges. We stood there for about 15 minutes ringing the bell repeatedly (at least 15–20 times), and he ignored us. That level of disregard is completely unacceptable.
Interacting with him felt confrontational and uncomfortable. He was dismissive, uncooperative, and unwilling to take responsibility. Instead of resolving issues, he made everything more stressful and unnecessarily difficult. It genuinely felt like he was trying to avoid guests rather than assist them.
Even asking for basic items like shampoo or soap turned into an unpleasant interaction. Items were handed over carelessly, without courtesy or professionalism. During checkout, requesting a receipt led to yet another frustrating exchange filled with attitude instead of assistance.
We were not the only ones dealing with these issues. Several other guests checking out at the same time were also complaining about overcharges, rude treatment, and lack of service. Everyone was met with the same dismissive attitude. There was no effort to listen, no attempt to resolve concerns, and absolutely no sense of customer care.
The room itself reflected the same neglect—torn sheets, stained and damaged curtains, and worn-out, discolored towels that clearly should have been replaced long ago. The condition was unacceptable and showed a lack of basic upkeep.
To make matters worse, a couple of guests mentioned that the owner’s behavior late at night was frightening. One female guest, who was checking in close to midnight, felt so threatened by his demeanor that she was visibly shaken. That is deeply concerning and completely unacceptable in any hospitality setting.
Because our concerns were ignored, we felt we had no choice but to contact law enforcement and file a report. We will also be submitting formal complaints to the Better Business Bureau and other agencies so this behavior is properly documented.
I’ve stayed in hotels all over the world, including in places with far fewer resources, and I have never experienced anything this unprofessional, disrespectful, and poorly managed. This was not just bad service—it was a complete failure of basic business standards.
Save your money, your time, and your peace of mind. Do not stay here.
