By far the worst hotel experience I have ever had. Upon pulling in, the hotel looks closed. There was no other car in the parking lot and the front doors were locked with a hand-written sign that said, "call this number upon entry." I called the number twice before someone picked up, the man on the phone said he wasn't expecting a guest and it would be a minute before he could come down. After fifteen minutes, the maintenance man arrives to open the doors and he then begins searching for my reservation to no avail. He had to call the owners to come down and find the reservation since it was booked through a third party site. I insisted on forgetting about the reservation and decided I would go elsewhere, but the owner said that I would still be charged by the third party because he did not have authorization to override.
It took over an hour to get to my room after the whole reservation debacle. It was then that I found out that this is NOT a hotel. It is 100% your standard motel. Online, it was advertised as a hotel, so I was incredibly disappointed. The front lot in the motel looks like it hasn't seen landscaping or any TLC in years. At first glance, the motel room looked ok. Nothing fancy, two full beds, a wooden desk, and a sink outside of the bathroom. Upon inspection, the bathroom was very dirty. The tub had not been cleaned and was lined with hair. Same for the toilet. I did not get any towels, and had to go back to the front office which was again locked, call the maintenance man, and wait for towels. The beds were disgusting, more hair and the comforters had a peculiar odor. I am so glad that I had brought my own set of sheets and a blanket and pillow. Overall, it was a very uncomfortable experience. I am glad that I was not traveling alone; the whole time I was here I felt like it was the pretense to a horror movie. Again, by far the worst hotel/motel experience I have had. Completely false advertising by the owners. read more
