Worst place I've ever stayed for this price point and breakfast is not included. It feels outdated not rustic. You don't feel a sense of privacy, it feels cramped, and my room patio overlooked a very close apartment/home.
First thing, we arrive at 8pm, we rang the desk and got no answer. (The woman had called me asking when I would arrive and I did say around 8pm). My toddler wanted to step outside and apparently the male owner arrived at this time and twice asked why I didn't call the phone number if no one answered the service buzzer. We had just walked in literally 1-2 minutes before he arrived. I told him that calling the number at the front would be the next thing I did, that we just got there. It felt a little pushy and odd that he was questioning this. It felt very unwelcoming.
He took us to our room which was literally filled with the smell of marijuana, as though someone was smoking inside the room itself, it was that strong. I asked for another room which he reluctantly stated there is another but it's only available one night (we booked 2 nights) at which point I should have left, but I had a nightmare day which I won't detail, and we just wanted to settle in to sleep and not try to find another hotel.
He seemed bothered to be dealing with me and I asked if there was a different room for tomorrow night and he said this one was available (which at first he said it was not).
I owe no explanation but stated that while initially I supported peoples right for legal marijuana I found it offensive that people would smoke in non smoking hotels to which he replied he likes the smell of marijuana, which to me wasn't very reassuring.
The air in the room doesn't circulate well, there was a wood fire somewhere outside and the smell stuck in the room even after the wood fire smell was gone outside, it lingered inside all night. You can smell the paint finish a little on one of the beams in the room. For some reason that night I kept smelling paint or some sort of chemical smell coming from outside as well, which was nauseating along with the camp fire smell. It lasted all night so I couldn't sleep.
There is not a feeling of safety with the door locks and there isn't an internal dead bolt for the patio or front door. There should absolutely be dead bolts, safety latch lock, or chain locks on the inside of the door. And yet for some reason the bathroom door has an internal dead bold which is bizarre.
There was a random dust pan under the bathroom sink and another dust pan left in the sitting area in front of my room.
Under the bed was dust and dog hair. Spider webs were on the closet door along with dirt cakes in the corners. The extra blanket in the closet was filthy, strong dirty odor, with a blood stain, for which they did apologetically replace with a clean one.
The refrigerator had significant mold and was dirty and the microwave was also very dirty.
I am a single mom with a toddler and was made to feel uncomfortable by who I assumed to be the owner, and then worse, when my son was upset when we returned from getting pizza and new toothbrushes, a lady who has also just returned, and happened to have a room next to us, began to say the most rude things to me about my son who was quickly quieted in less than a few minutes, but she basically was telling me he better not cry all night and I'm a terrible mom. I literally started laughing because she was so ridiculous and rude. I promptly left after telling, I assume the female counterpart of the hotel, that this is the worst place I've ever stayed in my life. I figured staying a second night was a bad idea and should have went with my instincts on it after the first night.
There are better places to stay for the price.
