Stayed here in August with my sister and the room was good, smelled nice, etc. Checked in yesterday…read moreat 4:30 and was assigned a room on the first floor for persons with a disability. Normally this isn't a problem - I get when you're low on rooms - but there are maybe 20 other people staying here. Not to mention my profile always requests "highest floor available, please". I went to the front desk and said "So y'all are sooo booked up that I had to have a room for those with disabilities?" He didn't have an answer for that. I mentioned my room in August was much nicer, smelled better, and didn't have dingy carpet and 70's-style nightstands. Front desk guy said "Ummm....we're renovating" (no they are not). My room faces I-35 and is right by the breakfast area. A lot of noise. Plus, the air conditioner is locked and though it says 66 degrees the room didn't cool off. I'll stay elsewhere next time I visit this area.

In the chaos of rebooking for the following morning and finding a hotel and transportation at midnight, I failed to call the Holiday Inn Salado to tell them I would not make the first of my two night stay. My card was charged for both nights, so all good there. When I tried to check in the following afternoon to take advantage of my second already paid night, I was told I'd have to pay again. I challenged this, and the front desk staff called the site manager Dixie who said I broke my reservation by not calling. She relayed that if I'd called they could have worked with me. I explained they still could work with me as I was NOT asking for a refund ... only for a room for which they acknowledged I'd already paid for ... which they again denied. Never again Holiday Inn. We're done.

Continue to improve the property and add back things like the wedding venue and the restaurant/bar plus add on a pole bar. They have a great pool. The rooms are very comfortable and it's right in the middle of town where you could walk to the majority of things that you want to experience with the insulator. They also have options now for renting golf carts and a little gift shop in the front lobby for some souvenirs.

Mystery meat I could never identify, soggy French toast, cold eggs and hard cinnamon rolls all for the low price of $20 a person. I catered and owned my own successful business for 20 years before retiring and haven't seen such a mess in a long time. The worst part? I asked my husband to take me there because I thought it would be a nice place to go. I was so wrong. Never waste any money here.

We had a suite where had a lot of square footage with a large separated bedroom, family room, kitchen, and bath. At first the TV in the bedroom and AC was not working, but the hotel staff quickly resolved the matter. Everything else worked fine. It was a full sized kitchen with medium sized refrigerator, microwave, sink, range, dishwasher but no oven. Paper products like paper towels are not provided along with tableware, drink ware and plates. There was also a small bar area with it's own sink. The hotel has WiFi and found the AT&T 5Ge (LTE) signal was very strong. The room was very clean and smelled nice. We had a corner room and views of the hotel next door and main road in front. The hotel also has an ice machine outside the door (could not hear it in room), indoor pool and spa, washer/dryer, and a pantry store at the lobby. Breakfast was served in the morning and enjoyed coffee, eggs, sausage and biscuits. The food was good. Felt safe staying there. The location was perfect where we just walked to the Cadence Bank Center and not deal with parking.

The staff is really friendly and they greet you right when you walk in this hotel makes you feel comfortable. So off the bat great customer service the hotel was very clean and I even had a a great conversation with the house cleaning supervisor we ended up being in the elevator together. She was really nice. The room was kind of small, but it still got the job done. The pool area was my absolute favorite. It has a Jacuzzi and a pool and a back patio with chairs. The pool area was clean as well, and so is the gym area. I would have gave this hotel five stars if I could flush my toilet in my room that was my only problem with this hotel. But next time I come, I'm sure the problem will be fix but like I said this hotel is remodeling , so I'm sure once it gets up and running properly things like that shouldn't be a problem. Customer service was 10 out 10 I will definitely come back

Do not book here unless you're ok with rat poop everywhere, as in on your silverware, plates and in…read morethe "breakfast" they leave in a mini fridge. The explanation from the owner was, "when it rains the rats come inside." That aside, the mattresses and bedding are horribly old and uncomfortable. How one of the reviews for this place(which is from four years ago) could possibly say that the bedding is lush and comfortable is INSANE. The a/c was also not on when we arrived so it took well over an hour for the cottage to become comfortable. I was also very afraid to use the jacuzzi tub as it was dirty with yes, more rat poop but the nozzles also looked dirty and who knows how old that tub really is so a bath was forgone. They don't send a confirmation email of your booking even though I was told twice I would receive one and beware of substantial additional charges that are not disclosed up front. Our stay ended up costing over $100 more than expected because of those extra fees. The cost of staying here is an absolute joke for the accommodations which are dirty and highly uncomfortable. Another guest who stayed when we did reported a similar experience. I don't know how they are staying in business because anyone that has the experience we did will certainly never come back and I hope that the people who read this find any other housing option, this place is not worth your money. There are plenty of other B&Bs with great location close to the shops and will not ruin your trip.

I'm sure it was a beautiful location when it was built but the lack of attention to landscape and upkeep are obvious. It is grown up with lots of vines and brush, some even rub on the sides of your vehicle. The food that was left was quite tasty. Once inside the cabin, it had a rustic vibe without an updated feel. The 13 inch tv and spotty internet was a disappointment. It was clean, but very overpriced.

Absolutely incredible weekend at Blue Hills Ranch. We were fortunate to stay in the stunning…read moreGiraffe Villa... a hefty price, but worth it if you can afford it. The Giraffe barn is attached to one side of the house, and their pasture is on the other side. It is the most fabulous "Barndominium" with incredible finishes and clearly thoughtfully designed. That experience alone was mind-blowing.... however we also had the Gold Packages and were able to experience everything the ranch had to offer! Zebras, Capybaras, Kangaroos, Otters, Deer, Homer the Dromedary!!! Everywhere you turned there were more animals and more experiences offered. My children and I were in absolute animal heaven and will be thrilled to return. I will say, our vacation was expensive and it did not disappoint. However, I do believe you can absolutely visit this ranch on a budget.... Probably one of the best experiences was their ranch safari and that is a nominal price and totally worth it! You can see the entire property and all of the animals on the safari trip. Additionally they have fantastic cabins that are themed, and if you have children under the age of 10, the pirate themed cabins are beyond your wildest imagination.... as far as I am aware all of the sleeping accommodations include kitchens so you can absolutely cook for your family instead of paying for the delicious ranch food. That said... Chef Alan is phenomenal and out of this world excellent chef. Each meal was made with love and artistry. The staff at Blue Hills Ranch all go above and beyond to create lasting memories for you. I absolutely recommend this experience as a NOT TO BE MISSED event! We are already planning a return in October/November depending on availability . Cannot wait. Looking forward to being among these amazing staff members (shout-out to Jen, Anne, Shelby, Emily, Chesney, Alan...) the guard dogs, and all of the incredible exotic animals. Thank you, Matt!

The entire staff was absolutely amazing--so accommodating, personable, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The chef was incredible!

That personal touch made the experience even more special. The staff truly went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I had one of the most memorable weekends of our lives. We felt genuinely cared for throughout our entire stay. I cannot recommend this ranch enough.

At check in I walked into the lobby and immediately noticed it was hot and dirty. I hoped it was just a busy day with everyone checking in and that it would be cleaned up, but it never was. I think on our 3rd or 4day there we did see someone cleaning a little bit it was never clean. Our room air did work so the rooms got cool, but the fleece blanket between the sheets had crusty stain. They never cleaned the rooms just came in Davian's swapped out towels and trash bags. It felt dirty the whole time we were there. Carpet in room and halls were stained and even rough edges showing. One day they didn't replied towels and we went down to ask for more and no one was at the desk. I went to my room and called down and no one answered. After a while I went down again and the front desk lady and 2 of the ladies I had seen working there were all sitting out on the patio hanging out. One was drinking a beer. I had to ask who to get towels from and one of them laughed and said oh that's me. It was the worst experience I have ever had in a hotel. One of the entry doors leaks water so the door is all wet and it drips on you as you walk in. I will include pictures but they do not do justice to just how ran down this place is. It was much cheaper with the event discount we got but I would have happily paid more to be somewhere else if there was available rooms.
