La Quinta by Wyndham Dublin - Suite

La Quinta by Wyndham Dublin

A Masterclass in False Advertising…read more If you're looking for a hotel that bears absolutely no resemblance to its online photos, congratulations--you've found it! I expected a well kept, clean establishment. Instead, I was thrown into a live-action survival horror experience!!! Upon arrival, I was greeted by an army of roaches that clearly considered themselves paying guests. They definitely seemed more comfortable than any human I saw. Mold was visible throughout the property, as if they were going with some kind of toxic interior design theme or an abandoned building aesthetic. The room was so unsanitary, I considered sleeping in my car. However, after further review, the parking lot wasn't far enough away from this dump for me to feel safe. The bathroom was particularly memorable. Nothing says "welcome" quite like pubic hair, urine, and dried man spooge! The vibe was definitely more "crime scene waiting for forensic analysis" than "hotel suite." It was clear that cleaning is treated as more of a suggestion than an actual job requirement for the staff. The pool? Calling it a pool is generous. It was more a giant bowl of slime that looked capable of developing its own ecosystem! I half expected a swamp creature to emerge and demand a room key!!! The elevator was also broken. I guess dragging luggage up and down the stairs was their idea of a fitness package!!! The most disappointing part was the staff's complete lack of concern. Every complaint was met with indifference, as if roaches, mold, and biohazards were standard features included in the room rate. Customer service apparently checked out long before the guests did. I usually try to find something positive to say in a review, but in this case, the best part of my stay was checking out. If this hotel spent half as much effort cleaning the property as it does editing its website photos, guests might stay instead of fighting for a refund. Seriously, the online photos should be submitted for consideration in the fiction section of a bookstore because they have no connection to reality whatsoever. Save your money, save your sanity, and save yourself from sharing accommodations with an entire roach community that clearly have long-term leases. The only thing pristine about this hotel was the imagination of whoever created the advertisement.

Hotel called me on the day of my reservation to tell me that my room was being canceled for the…read moresecond day and that my room was being changed even though it was booked through BringFido Totally unacceptable poor customer practices and Tracy was not cooperative about getting me booked for the second day at the hotel even though my reservation was in place for over 17 days Calling a reward customer on the day of the travel to tell them, their hotel room was overbooked is unacceptable And telling the same customer that they can't have the room they booked even though they were notified I had a pet by the booking company is also also unacceptable Poor practices overall I can't say if I ever go back to Dublin I would ever use this property. Unfortunately it's the only safe property in Dublin. If you've looked at the other properties you're taking chances. But then, again, if you can't get a room, what is this hotel? #GetItTogetherTraceyAndTheManagement

The Lodge at Little Ocmulgee State Park

They have upgraded this lodge greatly since the last time I stayed. The staff has always been very…read morepleasant and accommodating. But the room was definitely upgraded. It has a bit of a modern clean feel. The bathroom is large with a glass step in shower. They have a coffee maker as well as a step up from a mini fridge/ freezer. They have a large TV. The beds are very comfortable. Only draw backs ...The door sticks when you try to open it. You have to hit it with your hip hard to make it open after you unlock it with your card. Also the phone in the room didn't work at all... I couldn't even call the desk. I was trying to call to get the wifi access code... but couldn't call. The beads amazing and rooms are greP! So all in all a very good trip!

Great News: Fantastic lodge prices: a one night stay cost me…read moreonly $58!! (for 1 adult and 2 seniors!!) Scenic state park featuring an 18 hole golf course (I refrain from golf for embarrassment reasons) Friendly small-town staff. Small airport directly across the highway. VERY effective room air-conditioning. Single story buildings. Small "Restaurant" inside the lodge (did not dine there). Color Television with Cable. Iron & Ironing Board. Coffeemaker. Hair dryer. Space-age built-in soap/shampoo/conditioner dispensers. Glamorous News: This same lodge was recently used by the crew of one of those family-fixing "Nanny" reality shows while they were filming an episode in the McRae area. The lingering cloud of "Hollywood Glamour" at the lodge is palpable, though you should be careful not to confuse it with the teeming hordes of angry gnats (see below). Non-Glamorous News: Location may be perceived as "isolated" by resort-conscious (there is no "ocean view"). Woods be full of Captain Drew's lubber kinfolk and ticks (in equal measure). Teeming hordes of angry gnats. Angry, angry gnats that should not be confused with Hollywood Glamour (see above). Bad News: Firm mattresses. Relentlessly firm mattresses. Unforgivingly firm mattresses. The Deal: If you've a bad back, drive south Jim m'lad and don't stop 'till you've arrived at the wooden sign for the Little Ocmulgee State Park (and Lodge). Located about 35 minutes south of Dublin in the heart of Gnats-Up-Your-Nose County, this state park be the same locale where Captain Drew goes for his annual family reunion of inlaws and outlaws.... partly because we be such a wild bunch that we can't be contained by anything smaller, but mostly because it only costs us a couple hundred groats to rent an air-conditioned pavilion with its own surface parking lot. Perhaps one day I'll take one of you sweet-bottomed lasses down there on me arm to show off to me cousin/wives.... In all these years of herding my parents down to the reunion we've never stayed overnight in this state park's lodge UNTIL last week, when we found ourselves compelled southward by familial love and memorial duty. En route we agreed to give this state-run lodge a tryout since our former favorite, the Magnolia Inn, is now operated by a friendly family with a penchant for curries so indescribably pungent that the scent has permanently permeated the molecular essence of every structural component of their flophouse. While I enjoy a good curry as well as the next fellow, I also enjoy the delicious aroma of 78% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.038% carbon dioxide, trace amounts of other gases, and a variable amount (average around 1%) of water vapor. We were certain to find fresh air at the Little Ocmulgee State Park Lodge, and we did!! Signing In A breeze.... super fast. Our Stay Our lodgings were VERYsatisfactory. With the exception of a missing ice bucket (we had the lid), the room was as fully stocked as any other contemporary hotel room you'd find anywhere else in the nation. Why spend more somewhere else? Checking Out My only recommendation is to make every effort to prevent men in golfing togs and pronounced drawls getting in line ahead of you (especially if they're in the sawmill business) because they will delay your departure by 20 minutes as they kibitz with the friendly staff, loudly declaring how much money they make, detailing how much their monthly income surpasses the annual income of their fellow townfolk and generally strutting about acting "all rich and stuff". One solution to this dilemma is of course to nip out onto the nearby "wetlands" boardwalk (ie, swampy-path-to-nowhere), secure some sort of non-venomous-but-nontheless-agitated indigenous wildlife and insert it into the open golfbags in the back of the rich guys' pick-up trucks. Alternately, you can simply stand in line behind them with a fake smile plastered across your face, pondering at how marvelously ridiculous your little planet can be~

I ended up here because I'm working about 35 miles away in Vidalia. I stayed at Hilton's Home2…read moreSuites in Vidalia (reviewed and updated separately). It was a pretty nice place, but had a weird smell. At first I thought it was tolerable. Once I returned home, my luggage and clothing reeked so terribly that I had to wash them in Tide hygienic ultra pods twice. So as a Marriott girl, I came here. Not sure all the hate. When I checked in, they automatically addressed my ambassador status (which I don't care about, but just putting it out there). I got upgraded from a regular king room to a king suite, which has a lot more room and is really nice for a longer stay like mine (seven days). I got a free water as an ambassador. The room is clean, the bed is firm, but decent. The room doesn't smell terrible. Could use a little more storage space (only two full sized drawers). Located near several chain restaurants and about four miles from Main Street for some smaller local places. I think this is probably gonna be worth the drive.

My daughter and her friends were there for a weekend wedding. Came during the day Saturday and key…read moredid not work. Front desk came to change the batteries, and it flashed green once. They come home from the wedding at 9:00 PM Saturday and the key doesn't work, they have no way of getting in their room for their toiletries, medication, change of clothes etc. They were put into another room for the night. Sunday morning, they still cannot get into their room. The hotel had yet to call a locksmith Sunday morning at 10:00 AM which should have been the first thing on the list knowing it would take some time to get there. The General Manager, Christine Pate, refused to speak with me and when I called the hotel the front desk person (who was not briefed on what happened over night) would not help except to offer socks and food. GM did not want the door opened by the fire department or police. They comped the room which is the VERY LEAST they could have done. but now have to wait over 2 hours for locksmith-Should have been called earlier. Medication is the important issue here. These young adults cannot leave and get back to their homes because they need their personal belongings. I guarantee that if this was happening to me or my husband this would have been handled already. We will never stay with a Marriott property again which is a shame because that is all my family and company use for travel. Hilton here we come!!!! Seems to be a pattern here if you see all the reviews on here.

When I got to my room, the bed was unmade and the room had clearly not even been cleaned. It reeked of cigarette smoke and my friend's room smelled even worse. When we went back to the front to tell the guy, we once again had to wait for him to finish his personal call to tell him the conditions of our rooms. His response was "I don't have anything else so you can take it or leave it. I'd be happy to cancel your reservation." Didn't even offer to have someone come and clean the room. Would rather drive 50 miles out of the way than stay here. You probably should to.

Our second stop was at the Quality Inn in Madison GA, also a good motel, but on our return north, we decided to alter our daily travel this time and stopped for the night at the Quality Inn in Dublin GA. This was our first time there, and we were satisfied with it. It appeared clean and was comfortable, which is all we want from an overnight motel stay. And breakfast the following morning was very good with waffles, scrambled eggs, sausage, juice, coffee, sweet rolls, cereal and yogurt. Desk clerk was very friendly and suggested dinner at a nearby restaurant called the Pickle Barrel. I've reviewed it in a separate post.

Rooms fairly clean, though the industrial cleaner they use is kinda slimy and sticky. Daily housekeeping if you request it. Rooms fairly comfortable, though many of the electrical outlets are suspect and one actually blew up and sparked on me. Price a little steep, but I guess they can charge what they want due to limited options. Staff is pretty nice. But it still smells funky. I think it's the fabuloso cleaner, which is NOT fabulous.

First time staying here and probably the last. Seems to be a bit older motel. It took about 10…read moreminutes to get hot water started in the shower, bed look like they had quickly threw it together and the sheets were a little sketchy looking. The WiFi would not connect. Said Hilton Honors was unable to be joined. Texted management and asked why. An hour later they responded with how to connect using last name and room. Couldn't even get that far because the page wouldn't load. Sent text back again about unable to join at 11:31 pm and it is now 1:16 am with no reply. They love advertising free WiFi but don't actually offer it. When we arrived, I watched a couple stand at the lobby desk waiting for the front desk employee and after about 17 minutes of unloading the cart and returning it, the employee still had not returned to the desk. As first impressions, this motel is terribly lacking. Carpet in the hallways were old and stained looking. Like I said, I would not recommend or plan on staying here ever again.
