Stayed for the night of February 10th. Temperature low 30s. Heater was the wall unit kind. Tried to turn on and no power. The plug was charred but had a GCFI type of thing on it so I took a chance and pushed it. After several tries it clicked and buzzed and finally sputtered on. (I would've asked for different room but had already unpacked and showered before noticing heater wasn't working).
Before this happened, I tried to lock my entry door but the lock wasn't lined up with the door, so had to lift it and push. After several tries, got it locked. This should've been my warning sign...
Middle of the night, the heater went out, tried to press the button several times and nothing. (I was scared I'd get electrocuted after looking at the plug. This was a definite safety hazard and I probably should report it to someone) Tried to get warm but the comforter was a weird crinkly fabric like paper tablecloth so I just bundled up.
Morning came and I couldn't unlock the door because of the misalignment. Thankfully, finally got out after several tries.
I asked for a refund of some kind but the answer I got was "We can't give you a refund since you reserved on Priceline. We can give you another room". (As if I would ever stay here again.) Nope, not ever at any of their "Quality" Inns after that answer. I figure since they can't afford an electrician or a screwdriver to adjust the hinges on the door, they can't afford to give a refund.
I understand older establishments aren't going to have the latest updates but electrical systems should not be scary and locks on doors should work properly.
My suggestion to anyone looking for lodging in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, steer clear of Quality Inn If you do stay, don't stay in room 115 and check stuff before you unpack.
Maybe corporate should look up the definition of Quality. Or just delete Quality off the marque..... read more
