    Water damage in bathroom

    Abysmal! Room was dark to hide the stains on the linens and ironing board. Rough drywall patching with no paint. Water damage hole above toilet, possible mold, and peeling ceiling in hallway. When I informed them of the problems they weren't surprised and said they were doing "renovations" which wasn't advertised anywhere. Requested a new room, was told they were booked solid. Wifi was unusable in the rooms. Went to a nearby McDonalds and got lodging elsewhere. (in my search for availability for the date duration, this hotel appeared proving that they were NOT booked up. So they are also LIARS. AVOID AT ALL COSTS! Parking lot was also falling apart. You could hear the nearby highway louder in the room than outside. Exterior in bad condition.

    So the sign said newly renovated rooms thought I'd give it a try well if they were newly remodeled rooms I don't ever want that contractor doing any work for me paint an ceiling falling down in bathroom an mold furniture was old had a patch on wall by door that wasn't painted the door had a draft coming through it heater ran all night trying to keep room warm I definitely won't ever stay here again

    Dump! Busted faucet, Gouged vanity. Missing drawer handle. No screen.

    Complete slum! Busted off faucet. Stains. Cranky staff. Gouged vanity. Missing drawer handle. Shower leaks on the floor beneath the tub. Broken ironing board. (Iron missing anyway.) No screen. Bathroom door doesn't shut. Did someone have a fight in here? Refrigerator wobbles. Lamp looks like it came out of a zombie apocalypse. Walls in disrepair. I hope there aren't bedbugs. (Bed itches!) The Internet doesn't work. The TV keeps cutting out. Yuck. And, here's the kicker: $170 per night. Stay away. Stay far, far away. The only thing that might improve this is the liquor store next door. . . (I hope we don't get charged for the missing iron. We just checked in.) Rooms this bad should be illegal...in fact it probably is. Whelp, I warned you. If you ended up here it's your own d@## fault. LOL. This is so bad it's laughable.

    AC doesnt work. Lady gave him a fan. No screen in the window. No lock on the window. Inhumane with a service dog!!!

    I cant even give this a 1 star. DO NOT STAY HERE. PERIOD. I am reporting this hotel. They charged my son $72 to stay here cause every hotel was booked up and he was exhausted. The AC was not working and they gave him a fan. REALLY??? WHERE IS THE MAINTENANCE MAN?? I called and asked this really mean woman WHY they put him in this room???? That is inhumane, especially with a service dog. HOW can people run a business like this and get away with it???? The window has no screen and the lock on the window doesn't work!!!! Im highly upset. The lady said she didn't know the AC didnt work..yea right---- try again. She also told me she had more rooms. My son does NOT lie. Why would he say the lady said there were no more rooms and stay in a room with no AC. She also gave him a fan and she gave him a fan. WOW. WOW. WOW. She told me to contact the manager on monday that she is just an employee here--- WOW. I plan on contacting more then just a manager!!!

    The only reason they got a one is because you can't give a minus. This place needs to close. The worst place I have ever stayed. Nasty, broken, unsafe, loud and gross breakfast if, that's what you want to call it. There should be some kind of law against this place. The health inspector needs to check it out. I wash d my hands every time I touched something, yuck.

    We were told that we could pay when we showed up at the hotel but we were charged before arriving. Once arriving I see why we were charged they knew once we saw the room we would have changed our mind.. My husband and I were almost to the point of eating the cost of the room and going up the road to Council Bluffs IA. I know that most people have cell phones now but there was no phone to call anyone, no alarm clock. The room was big enough for our dog kennel but we were not told that we were being placed in an ADA accessible room.. After a long drive I was looking forward to a nice soak in the tub. But if we had a different room at this place I still may not have soaked it was disgusting. I would have never rented any of these rooms if I owned this place as they were under renovation and desperately need it, as the sign stated newly renovated. I know I see this on everyone's review if I could give it a negative star I would.

    The door does not have a good fit to the door frame.

    The door does not lock when shut unless you mess with the knob. It smells stale n the room. I would NOT book another room here.

    Renovated rooms?

    Be aware!! Our recent stay at the Hampton Inn in St. Joseph, Missouri was unfortunately…read moredisappointing and far from what we expected from a Hilton property. When we first checked in, we immediately noticed several issues with our room. Half of the electrical outlets and lights on one side of the room were not working, and the phone was completely dead. We went downstairs to address the situation, and after about an hour of back-and-forth discussions with the front desk staff, we were still unable to resolve the problem. It was already late, and after a long day of traveling, my boyfriend and I were simply too exhausted to keep going back and forth, so we decided to stay in the room as it was. We continued to stay in our room. It was eventually fixed. They said the panels Come off all the time... super unsafe and hazard. Unfortunately, the condition of the room left a lot to be desired. The carpet was heavily stained and looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. Dust was visible on surfaces, the furniture didn't match, and overall, the room felt dirty and outdated. We were only provided one blanket, and while there was an extra one in the closet, it was so old and grimy that it looked like it hadn't been touched in decades. There were some Cracks in the walls and water leaks that were visibile. Our bathroom tub was stained and the paint or plastic was chipping off. We were told that the last renovation was about 10 years ago, but based on the condition of the room, it looked much older--more like 20 or 30 years since any real update. The hotel's condition really shows its age and is in desperate need of upgrades and deep cleaning. We also noticed a strong odor of marijuana or cigarette smoke in the hallway near our non-smoking room, which made the environment uncomfortable. The hotel lobby also had a lingering smell of cigarettes upon entry. As for the staff, the night staff were decent and tried to help, but the day staff made us feel unwelcome and were not very approachable. Surprisingly, the lady who managed the breakfast area was the most pleasant and helpful person during our entire stay. she was friendly, informative, and seemed to genuinely care about guests. The hotel does not offer room service, dry cleaning, or laundry services, which is disappointing for a Hilton-owned property. One of the few positives was the breakfast. It was actually quite good, and there were different options each morning, which we appreciated. Another thing to note--the walls are extremely thin. You can hear people in the rooms next to, above, and below you. There also seemed to be some kind of electrical or plumbing issue, as the walls made strange noises occasionally. Overall, the location is convenient, but that's about the only major advantage. The property itself is old, needs major renovations, and does not reflect the usual Hampton Inn or Hilton standards. PLEASE RENOVATE OR LOWER YOUR PRICES .

The pool looked like the water was stagnant and only 2 of the jets in the whirlpool actually worked and the water was so low it barely covered your leg when you sat in it. The beds are hard as a rock too. This hotel does not stand up to the standard that Hampton used to hold!

    DISRESPECTFUL TO DISABLED . I made a room reservation for a "Handicapped Accessible Rom with a…read moreroll-in Shower". When I showed up at 4 pm , they charged my credit card and tried to give me a non- ADA room with VERY low sitting toilet with a tub. I went back to the desk and stated this is NOT the room I explicitly reserved. I was told they gave my reservation away. WHAT??!! No offer to try and find a different hotel in town with a handicapped accessible room. Just an offer for a few points for a partial discount on a future stay and reversed the charge on my card. Can't believe they are so stupid to think it's OK to treat people with disabilities this way. I would strongly encourage disabled folks to NOT make a reservation here. They CANNOT BE TRUSTED to honor it.

    It's not worth it. Whomever cleaned the room has absolutely…read moredoused everything in Lysol. It hurts to breathe. The kid at the front desk was nice. But there is no good reason to unload an entire bottle of spray. I can taste it in the air. I asked to switch rooms. He was very kind about it. The second room smelled clearer. We transfer rooms. I go to the second room to get ready for bed. It's dirty. Used towel hanging up. Hair on another towel and in the bathtub. I didn't complain. Just went to bed. Then the bill comes. All in all this one night ended up costing $328.38. Originally when I swiped my receipt it was closer to $265. Never again. This place will bend you over.

    What an incredible place paired with equally incredible service…read more The Chateau was gorgeous and full of history. I've never seen a place with such beautiful woodwork and stained glass windows. Isobel was so kind to answer all my questions and dive into the history of St. Joe and the house itself, clearly a huge passion of hers. My wife and I stayed in the Romeo and Juliet suite and it was so cozy we had a hard time leaving. I was impressed how clean and functional everything was given the age of the home, Isobel left no detail untouched. Isobel was always available to address our needs. I showed up to breakfast an hour early one morning by accident and that didn't matter, she adjusted for me. The next morning I showed up an hour late to breakfast, when I went downstairs expecting to only have coffee available, she still prepared and served us our breakfast which was so kind and not expected. My only concern before arriving was the location not being very central. Turns out I was wrong. My wife and I could get to any of the restaurants downtown or off Fredrick in 3 to 5 min drive. Everywhere else in town could be driven to within 10min. We'll be back. (PS - Glory is wearing a jacket in photos only because we were on our way out the door. The home was set a very comfortable temperature and our room had an independent thermostat just for us.)
