Horrible experience

Checked into hotel. Smelt like natural gas. Upon getting to room. The floor wasn’t fully put together. A/c unit was disassembled. Toilet was crooked cuz the bathroom door swung into it and had to push door to get past toilet to enter bathroom. Got locked in bathroom as none of the door handles worked. Ended up checking out after 15 mins of being at hotel and went to another

Unbelievably horrible hotel stay.

The stay started out with the room not being able to be locked. Told us there were not anymore rooms, then moved us to a room with a foul smell, hole in the bathtub, bugs in both rooms, dirty floor, mattresses that were lumpy, dirty walls in bathroom, black mold on doors and walls, flooring did not fit, large gaps in it. The hallways looked like livestock had been living in it. many many places that plate was badly chipped, doors did not fit, cracks in drywall, etc. This place should be closed by the department of health, mold, bugs, filth, etc.

We had to switch from our original room to another one because the sink wouldn’t drain and the fridge didn’t work. Honestly it also had a really weird smell. Then when we got the other room and the AC was ducted taped together, and the tub was also ducted taped and had little holes in the bottom of the tub, looked like cigarette burns on the tub. The bed was so stiff both of our back’s were hurting. The breakfast wasn’t anything great, no sweet and low available and my boyfriend is a diabetic.

There were only two housekeeping staff for a four floor building. I think they did the best they could but I have a list of issues, including AC and management issues. The two men who seemed to be in charge, didn’t show much interest in helping us meet our needs and kept saying “go ask housekeeping.” I have a list and will be glad to share it with someone if they are interested. We actually tried to move to another hotel but those in the immediate area were full because of a concert. We will not stay at that hotel again, and now have a negative attitude towards Ecolodge in general. For point of reference, we’ve been on a driving trip across America for two and a half months, staying mainly at Best Western, but also at other lower price hotels when needed for location reasons. This Ecolodge was the most disappointing and a big part of that was the attitude of management. And we say that having owned two businesses that depended on good customer relationships.

Not as clean as I would have expected being in the area it’s in. I found multiple bugs in my room, refrigerator was dirty/stank and was not plugged in. To top it off, my linen was never picked up and sent clean stuff.
