The one star was for the staff. Otherwise I would give it a zero. 95 degrees and they did not turn on the hallway AC. Pool is not fixed, nor the hot tub. No room clean up service unless you ask the day before. Hallway smells and carpet looks circa 1960 and never replaced. Towels are threadbare and complementary shampoo etc is minuscule and awful. My hairdryer did not work. And trash was not emptied in 5 days we were there. Our group dubbed it the Worst Western. We were supposed to get a suite but told the AC not working, yet they gave the suite to someone else who booked thru Booking and they said the AC just fine. ( we got a discount price for an event). The best thing was the restaurant next door. Excellent food! read more

Pool closed no notice, no ac in the hallways, mold in lower rooms sinks don't work toilets don't work the place sucks best western should drop them from the chain read more

Black paper covering the windows. No curtains. Mold everywhere. No pool. Room smelled of mold. Mold growing on the ceiling tiles in the hallway. Mold growing on the wall in our room. Mold under the AC unit. Mold in the shower. Called the manager on day 2 and was told "sorry we're fully booked and we can't move you." Called Best Western corporate to complain and all they could do was give us reward points. Talked to the owner on day 3 and were told he could move somebody out of their room and give it to us but we had to call Best Western corporate and tell them everything was good with the hotel and there was no longer a problem. We refused to do that so he said we could check out that day. We had 2 more days left on our stay. We couldn't switch hotels because everybody was fully booked due to a motorcycle rally that we were attending. As far as the pool, other patrons had told us that the pool had been under renovation for many years not just recently. This was the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. If I could give it zero stars I would. read more

My family has stayed at the Braddock Inn for generations and always enjoyed it. This was our first stay post pandemic and the place is a hot mess now. The rooms smelled, the pool was closed, most of the fitness equipment was broken, one room ground floor had pleated paper window shades that had hols in them, carpets.were stained stairwells had lighting that flickered on and off and overall the place was suffering from a lack of basic maintenance. apparently for years. The in hotel breakfast was not at all good but he bar and restaurant were fine. It was really sad too see what had been a quaint, unique hotel fall so far. read more

Roof over the pool area was leaking, the hot tub was just warm dirty water no jets Most horrible in the bathroom when pulling out tissue, a vow of drug substance popped out. read more

Amazing stay, everything was so good. Staff was helpful and kind. Amazing pool. I enjoyed my stay and recommend the place strongly

TERRIBLE HOTEL Our room was not clean. We found old pop tart crumbs and wrappers behind the bed and BLOOD ON THE SHEETS . Do not stay here I give them a -10/10. I highly DON'T recommend read more

No smoking room smelled like smoke. Dirty carpets throughout the place. Outdated rooms.

The bedding was a bit shabby. My non-smoking room smelled so badly of cigarette smoke. Although check out is at 11:00 am, housekeeping knocked on the door at 10:50 am to ask if we were leaving like we had stayed too late. The Concierge was extremely nice! read more

Great unique entrance next to a great restaurant. Clean workout room and our room was very clean and nice looking. Pool clean with kids having lots of fun. Even fresh coffee at night. Great selections of snack foods in vending machine at low prices.This hotel is very good for anyone. Plus discounts and free breakfast read more

Front desk was not friendly and not helpful. I got a room that I was overcharged for and no receipt to show the charges. I was trying to ask questions while he was checking me in and kept shushing me. Not impressed at all. The hallways smell of smoke and honestly we should have left but I'm sure he would have charged us anyways and we were exhausted from driving. read more

Overall, the hotel rooms were clean but the common areas were clean but worn. Our room was just fine for a one night stay, the linens were clean and the bathroom was spotless. There is plenty of parking, easy in and easy out. The hot tub could use some attention as it doesn't seem to be working too well, it wasn't too much of an inconvenience that we needed to report it but routine inspection and maintenance should let them know that the jets aren't great. read more

Here for a birthday party - would not rent a room here if they are half as gross as the pool area. Mold on the floors and the water is murky and smells like it's been wrung through a sweaty gym sock. read more

Best Western Braddock Inn - Hot tub - Hotels Near Me - Lavale, Maryland

The Best Western brand has been a good hotel brand to me over the years I've been traveling for marathons. They provide comfort and safety while you're on the road while being affordable, but sometimes they're not always the cheapest. I found this Best Western Braddock Motor Inn on Hotels.com while planning my 2nd east coast trip of 2016 back in July. The location in between Keyser, WV and Cumberland, MD made this location very much ideal and it was priced moderately at the time at around $102/night. It was better than some of the others that I had seen online (price wise) and Best Western was the brand that I trusted the most after seeing the listing. The best thing about Best Western and Hotels.com is that I can book the hotel online but not pay for it until I arrive at the hotel. This made it easier for me, much like booking rental cars and not have to pay for the booking till you get there. It was easy to find, considering that I had GPS on my iPhone, so that made everything virtually seamless. I love this brand, but usually I try to get something cheaper without sacrificing safety and reliability. I stayed here for two nights on Friday and Saturday, September 23 and 24, 2016. I was given room 205. The overall experience here at the Best Western Braddock Motor Inn was pretty good, but yet average. The hotel is modest yet clean and safe. The in-room amenities included the microwave and fridge, although the fridge wasn't as cold as it should be. The air conditioning/heater worked good as well as the television. I got a room with 2 double beds. Since I stayed two nights, I slept on both beds. Both of them were comfortable and I got a decent night's sleep on each time I was there, especially since I really needed my rest to be able to put out 26.2 miles on foot the next morning. Needed to be well rested for that! The Best Western Braddock Motor Inn is located at 12680 National Highway in La Vale, Maryland. It's right off the I-68, so you can't miss it, unless you're coming from Pittsburgh, PA via Morgantown, WV like I was. Like many hotels out there, this Best Western property has a private parking for its guests. There's plenty of parking and the building itself is large enough to support multiple entrances to the building. I ended up getting assigned to entrance "D", since that's the closest one to my hotel room. Like all hotels these days in the industry, they accept major credit cards. Always a good thing. Not sure if there are people who pay cash for a room anymore, but I'm sure that they're out there. The only problem I had with my experience here at the Best Western Braddock Inn was that the 2nd floor ice machine didn't work, so I had to waddle down to the first floor to get ice. Not easy to do when you ran 26.2 miles earlier in the day and had to go up and down stairs. Still, it was a little annoying to have the ice dispenser not working when you want it too. The room itself was clean and organized. It was of average size, complete with aforementioned fridge and microwave, a moderately sized television, two double beds, and a bathroom tub and sink. It was a comfortable stay, but an average experience. I guess when you travel regularly, you know what you pay for. No bells and whistles here, just basic comfort and a good night's rest at an affordable price is all I ask, and I get that here with the Best Western brand. I would recommend this Best Western property if you are traveling through western Maryland and needing a place to stay. The stay would be 3.5 stars overall, while the beds were 4.0 stars. Check in and out service was quick and painless. Friendly and hospitable. 4.0 stars. Support local! B read more

**We stayed here for my son's graduation. We booked NON-smoking/pet friendly rooms. One of the rooms was close to an exit. Every time we opened the door, the smell of cigarette smoke was overwhelming and filled our room. There were smoking rooms on the same hallway as our room. I just don't get it. **There was never any mention of construction going on in this hotel. The lobby/check in area and rooms were being remodeled. The pool area was closed. We were woken up by the workers standing in the hallways talking and smoking aroung 6:30am. **The room wasn't the cleanest but the bed was really comfortable. **The towels were like sandpaper. **The breakfast. Tater tots and sponge-like folded sheets of 'scrambled eggs'. We won't be back. read more

Absolutely do not stay here. We were traveling from Pennsylvania to Indiana. Booked a room here, there was a homeless woman in the lobby asking for money and walking the entire hotel for whatever items she could steal. The place is dirty, smells like smoke and is extremely outdated. We went to our room and the room had not been cleaned from the previous occupant. The front desk acted like this was pretty normal, however this is like renting a room at a hostel. My daughter was terrified and I am still yet to get a refund because we refused to stay at the dump. I feel sorry for the front desk worker, she was used to this hotel allowing all the street workers and drug dealers renting rooms. read more

This hotel DOES allow smoking. There were a couple people smoking and me and my family had to be moved to a different room because we were accidentally put in a smoking room (my mistake,So sorry!) But even in the non smoking area it does still smell like smoke, it made are head ache! In our new room we came upon a COCKROACH on the pillow! Then we discovered ants on the table and door frame! Everywhere was dusty and just not clean and there was was some crumbs in the bed so obviously the cleaners must be not doing there job well. The good thing about the hotel was the pool and the beds, we slept so good in those beds!! Breakfast was bad though..the waffles smelled and tasted like cigarette smoke and upset our stomachs and the milk tasted sour! The receptionist was nice and I felt bad for her because of all the crackheads staying here. Please don't stay here 1/10 only a 1 for the pool and beds. read more

On the positive side, very nice layout including indoor atrium pool area. Front desk staff was super friendly & helpful, rooms are nice for the price (priced appropriately. Nice hot breakfast bar & variety of cold options. On the contrary, the hallway smells like cigarettes & seeped into the hotel room triggering allergic reaction. The room's HVAC unit is timed to hold your selected temperature for ~2 hours, then reverts to fixed setting of 62 degrees... thus cold (62) when you enter the room and cold (62) when you wake. Most frustrating, I had to change rooms shortly after arriving as I was placed in a room with HVAC out of order & told, "oh yes, that room was reported an issue a few days ago". read more

I slept all night without any interruptions. That is something, considering that I usually only sleep an hour in a hotel! The breakfast bar was absolutely wonderful. I wish I would have taken some pictures to post with this review. The rooms were really clean, and the TV's had a lot of channels. There were a plethora of outlets for devices and laptops. The heating system works. Overall great hotel, hope to stay there if I am in the area again. read more

I don't know if it's funny or cool, but this review will be useful to anyone who has to find a hotel on a 30 mile stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere! There's a university about 10 miles away. The "Honeymoon Suite" is the best room they have and they have two of them. One for "Honeymooners" who smoke heavily and one for "Honeymooners" who don't. Yet. The best room in the house goes for about $120/night. I asked them why they called it the Honeymoon Suite, thinking that it might limit business. Apparently, in this neck of the woods, and I say that literally, it does just the opposite. Locals of all phases of marriage (to each other or to someone else) often spend a night or two here on mini-holiday. They have a large, glassed in, heated pool and hot tub which seems to be the attraction in a place that snows from before Halloween until after Easter. For reasons beyond my control, I've had to stay here many more times than I want to count. The hotel is clean and the price is mostly reasonable for what it is. That said, because they're as good as you're going to get and have been for about 100 years, they have the attitude of an exclusive boutique hotel, yet they are a BEST effing WESTERN Motor Inn just off an exit on National Highway next to a McDonalds and in front of a bowling alley. The attitude used to drive me insane(r), but now it's just funny. Yes, I mean that in a condescending way. read more

My sister and I came for a night away, hotel is nice typical I suppose.. The beds were average, I slept all night through for once. The pool and hot tub nice, not an overwhelming smell of chlorine in the hot tub however some wood work could be done. The pool was lovely, I like how it's laid out and that it goes to six feet. There is a tiki bar that had a stereo in it, however no music was playing I think that should be on low at all times. We did enjoy the sauna but had we known it takes 20 minutes to heat up we'd of turned it on before going to the pool. The hot breakfast was very good eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy, and of course cereals. We had dinner at the bar an grill next door, Hennys, not bad, but don't get their burger we had wished we'd of saved the $52 and went to Burger King. Would I stay here again?? Probably not only because there isn't much to do in this area, if passing through and you want a dip in a pool and nights sleep, and a warm breakfast, it's a good stay for that. read more

Not a super place to stay but better than the recent ratings. Have stayed here twice in the past month and 3 times in the past 6 months. Nothing wrong with it. Has a nice pool, decent breakfast and nice setting around the hotel. Definitely ok for a night or two, probably wouldn't want to spend a week here, but it serves its purpose for our needs in this area. read more

Best Western: I have higher expectations for your breakfasts than other 3 star hotel chains. This aint no Comfort Inn! Seriously though, no fresh fruit at breakfast - booo! I know we're in the boonies so microwaved processed eggs and carbs carbs gluten galore is the name of the game but STILL. All I ask for is one banana or orange. Please and thank you. The room was fine though, the pool/jacuzzi area was good. Didn't get to try the sauna. Next time, maybe. Update: giving this a point upgrade because despite the bad breakfast, we managed to conceive our baby here. Great place to make a baby! read more

"Worst" Western is what my 11 year old dubbed it as we were checking out. I should have known from the moment I walked into the lobby and was greeted by both a sad and half dead plant and an employee that was less than enthusiastic. She asked me to sign a paper stating we wouldn't smoke in the room. I said it's non smoking... we don't smoke. She said ok just sign it. It's ok I told myself, anyone would be sad to work Easter. But little did I know her demeanor was probably from her soul being crushed by the crackheads that inhabit this establishment. We reserved a pet friendly non smoking room. We were directed to the rear of the building to enter our wing. As we were unloading the car it appeared to be a scene from the walking dead as the inhabitants seem to use this area for both a smoking and drug dealing entrance. As soon as we walked in, the smell of skunky reefer and stale cigarettes hits you in the face. We walked down the hall and let ourselves in to our room. Shabby, small, with stained walls. We realized right away the roll away we ordered was not in the room. No problem. The kids wanted to go to the pool, I would mention the cot then. The kids got in their swim gear, and we started walking towards the direction of front of the hotel, where I noticed the pool was located upon check in. We walked, walked and walked only to hit dead ends, empty meeting rooms and employee only stairwells. The signs to the pool were pointing in incorrect directions. We finally made it. I stopped to inquire about my cot before the pool, and asked, by chance, if our wing was nonsmoking as I requested because it was really Smoky. "Oh. No. The room right next to you is smoking. The pet rooms and smoking rooms are mixed together." I said oh I really feel like someone was smoking in our room before we arrived. She said yes maybe they do rent the non smoking rooms out when someone requests a smoking room and they're "sold out and have a smoking emergency" I tried not to laugh out loud. This place would never be sold out, and what is a smoking emergency? She gave me a spray can of Incense to spray and wished me luck. I was gonna need it. The only reason this place got one star is because the of the pool. It really was nice and my kids loved it. Wasn't the cleanest but it was totally passable. The hotel seems to have actual transient people living in it, I realized as the stay went on. I am pretty sure I witnessed at least two drug deals in route to my car. The whole place stunk so bad it gave me a migraine and I felt unsafe and paranoid the whole time. None of the main doors lock. Anyone can come and go. And they did, believe me. I've never been so excited to check out of a hotel. Everything and everyone we brought with us got thoroughly washed in hot water as soon as we got home. If you like the smell of smoke and being surrounded by crack heads this place is for you. If not, go elsewhere! read more

People should be ashamed of themselves for leaving such negative reviews about this hotel. I was truly worried after reading everyone's comments and I had NO reason to be! This hotel was FANTASTIC, and a STEAL for the money! It sounds like a lot of people complaining on here have very high, unreachable standards, but only want to pay $200 for an entire weekend stay. Get real! PROS: Breakfast was AMAZING... I seriously have no idea what people are complaining about on here! They had EVERYTHING you could ask for and more. Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, gravy biscuits, waffles with toppings, cereal, various juices, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, bagels and cream cheese, and more. The breakfast staff were super nice and made sure everyone was having a good day and enjoying their stay. The hotel room was clean and orderly. I stayed in Room 351. There was a small stray hair in the tub but what do you expect? It's a human cleaning the room - NO ONE IS GOING TO SEE EVERY LAST LITTLE THING so give it a rest!!! Stop complaining. Wipe the hair away and move on. Pool was fantastic. Hot tub was even better. People keep saying the water is green/gross. I have OCD and I'm a germaphobe, and I would never get into a disgusting hot tub. The water appears cloudy because there's chlorine, it's hot, AND it's bubbling... what did you think it was supposed to look like? Carribbean tropical water?? I enjoyed every minute of it. Vending machines and ice machines were stocked and ready to go. Bathroom toiletries were quality and not some cheap off brand. Front desk staff was pleasant. Bed was SUPER comfortable, I got the best night sleep I have had in forever! A lot of people here complained about constantly smelling cigarettes. I have no idea what you're talking about. I didn't once smell a cigarette all weekend long, not through the hallways, in my room, or anywhere else. And we had some heavy duty smoking biker gang show up. People on here also complained about the location. Seriously guys, WHAT are you talking about?? It's beautifully located RIGHT in the MOUNTAINS, with a restaurant and bar DIRECTLY ATTACHED AND AVAILABLE, and on a popular highway with ALL the stores and eateries that you need! It was quiet, comfortable, and convenient! CONS: I ran the bathroom sink tap forever and it didn't ever get warm. No problem, the shower was nice and hot! All in all, thank you Best Western Braddock Inn. I will DEFINITELY be returning! A+ read more

Could have given them five stars. For the price they have a really nice pool area, friendly staff, and everything looks really clean, but the mattress in our room is far beyond wore out. read more

My husband and I were in the area visiting friends and decided to stay at this Best Western since it was close to restaurants and the interstate. We were very disappointed. The outside was very nice, so I had relatively high expectations. Our room was on the first floor, which isn't the main floor, which was odd. The pool and breakfast room is actually on the second floor. The whole layout of the hotel was ridiculous. If you have any kind of handicap, be sure to ask for a main floor room, as there is no elevator. As for the room itself, the bed was very hard, so I was stiff and sore the next morning. The breakfast was OK. There was powdered eggs, which gave me a bad stomach ache. The orange juice dispenser didn't dispense orange juice. It looked like lemonade, but it kind of tasted like watered down orange juice. Either way, it was disgusting. Also, the breakfast room isn't in a great location. It overlooks the pool, which is nice, but it's down a dark hallway and it wasn't the easiest to find. The pool area was nice, but looked like it could use a good cleaning. The place also needed a coat of paint. For what this hotel cost us (about $128 with tax for a room with a single king bed), we could have stayed at a nicer place. read more

Not great. In the first room I was given the door was open and the bed was messy. I exchanged my key for a new room and was surprised to enter to another tenant sleeping. Third room was much better, mostly clean and fairly comfortable beds. The hotel does have a nice outdoor area with a stream and fire pit. All and all I'd rate this a little below average. read more

Worst hotel I've had in years. Limited options in the middle of nowhere this place charges big city rates for a garbage motel room. I hate this place. "Pet friendly" is $25 a night and limited to a very small selection of rooms. The wifi doesn't reach my pet friendly room, so I'm writing this from the hallway. ** WARNING TO PHYSICALLY DISABLED ** I booked as a first floor ADA accessible non smoking king room and was assigned a second floor smoking double with no elevator and no option for a refund. read more

Very disappointed with my stay here. Room was standard and clean (except for the dirty rag that we found hanging on the shower rod). Continental breakfast appeared tasty until we had to run for dear life to the toilet afterwards(avoid the eggs!). We planned to have an enjoyable day at the pool just lounging around because there isn't much else to do around here on a frigid winter day. Unfortunately, we couldn't even do that because the pool was packed with people due to a birthday party going on. They hold 2 + birthday parties a day on the weekends and there is no place to even sit at the pool area. When I asked when the parties were done so that we could use the pool, I was told basically never from November until March. If you are a local, you will be treated like gold. If you are an actual guest, expect to be treated like an outcast. You can't even get a pool towel. I didn't realize that we would be staying at the local YMCA. Like other guests stated, the hotel reeks of smoke in certain areas and it it is dated. There was a large amount of trash in the parking lot and dog poo galore in the back area. They do allow dogs but for a $25 fee. I have stayed here many times in the past since I used to attend school in the area but after this incident I will not be returning. If my children can't use the pool, what is the point of paying extra for a motel with a pool? Please don't stay here if you expect to use the pool on the weekends, because it isn't going to happen. Every local and their mom will be here celebrating here. One other thing, wi-fi is very unreliable, especially in the back area of the hotel. read more

Emergency stop in. Front desk staff was super friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and spacious. Lots of towels, fridge and microwave. Pool area is cool and breakfast included. Comfy beds and dog friendly. Good price. Would absolutely recommend and stay here again. read more

I spent a few nights here on a little getaway with my spouse. At the time we lived about 6 hours apart and Cumberland was basically in the middle. Of all of the hotel choices in Cumberland, this one was in the least crappy area and the best value. I really liked the pool area. I'm a sucker for that crap, but I loved it. I also loved the grounds. I've stayed at a lot of Best Westerns and this one probably has the nicest grounds... Braddock Run skirts the edge of the property and they've taken advantage of that. I also appreciated their breakfast options, especially their waffle makers. Downside? The bed in our room was HARD. But I would happily stay here again when traveling in Cumberland. Just that, if you're coming to Cumberland it's important to adjust your expectations for the fact you're visiting the sticks and it really is the best place around!! read more

A first time visitor to the area, 6 hour drive= very disappointed! Within the first 5 minutes of entering our room these are the complaints; super hot! The AC barely worked! The fridge wasn't even plugged in and when we moved it to plug it in since it wasn't, 5 cockroaches went scattering. The room could have been much cleaner as there were smears on the mirrors. When complaining to the front desk they attempted to say we saw water bugs..(definitely cockroaches) they wanted to exterminate to make us feel better, which it did not. The next visit to the area will be to another hotel. read more

I just checked out of here... An hour after I checked in. Yes, the pool looks nice, but if you're looking for any kind of amenities in the room itself you're out of luck. The bathroom's the size of a small closet. Tiny shower stall, no tub. Internet doesn't work. Heat doesn't work. Bed is hard and crappy. Oh, and the front desk lady had an attitude when I told lack of working wifi in the rooms was unacceptable. I'm outta here. read more

Good hotel for the price. Really kind staff and nice rooms. The rooms are nice and location is good. Only complaint is that the hallway smells like cigarettes/marijuana and the walls are paper thin . Other than that good hotel read more

Reasonably priced, clean, and friendly staff. Slightly dated but I would go back if traveling through the area

Best Western & Braddock Inn are Liars, Cheats and Most Definitely NOT worth spending your MONEY on. My family reserved Two rooms ate the Braddock Inn Lavale, MD. in April 2017 for a Family Reunion in July 2017.They Charged our Credit Card the entire amount in ADVANCE to Reserve the rooms. Due to unexpected Medical treatments in May and June we were told by our Family Dr. on July 11, 2017, that a 1200 mile trip up to MD. was not advised. We called BOTH the BRADDOC INN @ LAVALE, MD. and the BEST WESTERN CORPORATE OFFICE today to Cancel our reservations. They REFUSED to CANCEL our reservations or to REFUND the Credit Card CHARGE. PLEASE TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE / THESE PEOPLE ARE LOW_LIFE'S. read more

Not bad, not great. But for the price it was fine for one night. Amenities were ok too. The breakfast in the morning had great waffles. The bar next door is nice, we had a late dinner and cocktails making it convenient. read more

This place does not even deserve a star!! We stayed here in march 2012 and I still regret it,lol. The other review is correct. It smelled of smoke all down the hall ways and is very run down. A lady that claims to be the manager is very rude, extremely rude, and loud. I was relieved when our stay was over. This review kinda goes along with this whole part of Cumberland though. The town itself was very run down. The little mom and pop motels were not pet friendly. I have no idea why because they were dumps also. But getting back to the best western they did have a nice pool, but they also rented it out for parties, so good luck using it. They did kept it open for the guests while the parties were being held but it made it very awkward when u wanted to just relax after a hard day. The nicest place to stay would have been Fairfield, down in Cumberland, but they weren't pet friendly. I have no desire to return to this best western, or this part of Maryland again. But if u do stay here they are pet friendly just make sure you get that you paid your pet deposit, how much you paid and get it signed by whom ever took the deposit, b/c they will tell you that you did not pay it when you check out. read more

This is my SECOND time staying staying at this hotel...but it MAY be MY LAST!!! I stayed a year ago, after getting my daughter moved into FSU for her Freshman year. I am at the hotel as we speak again, a year later, for the same reason (Sophomore year...). FLEAS: THIS time I had to bring my Chihuahua, because she developed Diabetes in the last 4 months, and onky my daughters (who are both with me) and I are comfortable with giving her the twice-daily Insulin shots. She rode up quietly with me in my car, sleeping most of the way....and NOT SCRATCHING ONCE the WHOLE 3-hour trip. She spent 4 hours with us in my daughters dorm room yesterday....and DID NOT SCRATCH ONCE. Last night, after we settled into our room, she started to scratch REGULARLY....and HASN'T STOPPED!!! I managed to pick off and kill two fleas off her body, but two others crawled away. But, SHE did NOT come with fleas, so I have to conclude the room was ALREADY INFESTED!!! This is ANNOYING!!! THEN, on check-in, I was told there is a $50 pet fee NIGHTLY, of which $25 is refunded if NO damage is done to the room by the pet....So, does THAT mean Braddock Inn will compensate me or REFUND me the FULL pet fee, seeing as now I have to purchase FLEA TREATMENT PRODUCTS???? Doubtful! BAIT-N-SWITCH: when we checked in, the young woman at the desk told me my Credit Card had been declined at the time I set up the reservation (3 weeks+ ago...), and because I'd originally reserved through a "3rd party," (Booking.com), I would have to pay Braddock Inn's regular nightly rate-of-the-moment ($104 + taxes....vs my original $78 + taxes). My daughters and I were too tired to fight it, but I feel taken advantage of. NEITHER Braddock Inn NOR Booking.com EVER let me know the Credit Card was declined, BACK when I could have taken care of it. Neither of them EVER notified me (NO emails...NO calls...)! I feel VERY taken advantage of, and--DESPITE a few other features I really like about this hotel--I am going to SERIOUSLY THINK TWICE before I book here again. read more
