This hotel was ok but not very clean. The shower had soap left from the precious occupants. The headboard had something running down it and dried. At least the sheets looked clean. The carpet made my feet feel dirty if I stepped on it barefoot. The room was old and run down, but I don't mind that if its at least clean. Price was just ok for the condition of the room.

Sadly disappointed!!!!

The staff was friendly. Room was old and could have used remodeling. The room had everything we needed, but the smoke detector was missing. The carpet felt like it was matted down with dirt. The next morning after a storm went thru we understood maybe why. My husband got out of bed to be standing in water between the outside wall and his side of the bed. Was there just one night wish we had booked somewhere else. Probably ok for a quick trip and a room above the first floor.

Awful

This place was a joke. First they gave me a key to someone else’s room and I walked in on them in bed. Then I went down to get another room and key. Got up to my room and in walks some stranger. They gave someone else the same room as me. Once that got all figured out, the rooms were nasty. Pubes in the bath tub and everything. Do not stay here!

No real bathroom door. It has a slide door that doesn't close properly or lock. It's pretty easy to hear every door in the place when they close.

The property is disorganized. I booked the rooms over one month in advance. When we arrived, the staff assigned us to a room the is already occupied by another guest. We were luck that the person did not meet us in the room, we would have to proof that we are not thieves and intruders or robbers. We could have been hurt if that person has a weapon or we could be explaining ourselves to the police. The staff at the hotel had no remorse or regret for the mess they created. We were told to go and look for another hotel after we flew about 7hrs for an event the following morning. Smoking was everywhere despite promise of a smoke free property. Worst hotel experience - The place should be black-listed.

Very subpar on cleanliness.

Our room had not been cleaned/vaccuumed in a long while nor had the hallway. The old linens were still piled in the room. This is an older hotel that could be revived to a nice hotel....but it needs some pretty big renovations and new cleaning crew!!! Carpet is old. Drapes are barely hanging. Breakfast was not so great and the front desk lady touched the foos without washing her hands after being at the desk. Shall i go on?

DISGUSTED-HOTEL.COM CAN NEVER TO BE TRUSTED!!!!

I WAS TOLD BY JEXREL JO THAT MY RESERVATION AT THE LAMPLIGHTER INN COULD NOT BE CANCELED, REFUNDED, OR SWITCHED?!!?!?! I ACCEPTED THOSE THINGS AND TOLD JEXREL TO LEAVE THE RESERVATION AS IT WAS. I DROVE 30 MINUTES OR MORE TO THE HITEL TO FIND OUT THAT MY RESERVATION WAS CANCELLED AFTER BEING TOLD THAT IT COULDN'T BE. I HAD TO SLEEP IN MY CAR BECAUSE AS A SINGLE MOTHER I DIDNT HAVE THE EXTRA TO GET ANOTHER ROOM UNTIL THE REFUND WENT BACK TO MY DE BIT CARD

Absolutely horrible!!!

Upon arrival the front desk agent let me know that host hotels.com had actually overbooked the property. She then told me that there were no rooms available. I had already had my credit card charged and was not about to leave without a refund. She then lets me know that she found a room. However, the room hadn’t been cleaned. I was only on a shopping trip with some friends so we made due with it. The place is right next to a strip club and I’m fairly confident that at least some of the rooms are used hourly. This place is simply nasty, throughout.
