How this place is still in business, I just don't understand. I was here this weekend, for a bachelorette party, and from the moment we stepped in to the moment we left this place was just atrocious.
Let's start with check in. We arrived early, around noon, we walked in and spoke to Suzanne, at the front desk. She told us that our rooms were not ready (which we knew wouldn't be, it was really early), but to leave our cell and she would call us if and when they were done, and if we didn't hear from her to just come back at 4 for check in. Totally fine, we decided to go downstairs to the restaurant and grab some lunch. She allowed us to keep out perishable items (water, snacks, etc that we brought from home) in the office so they didn't go bad in our hot car. Suzanne was the only pleasant experience we had this whole trip.
At 4pm, after a super long and drawn out lunch at Oso and a few hours in the pool where getting a drink took 30 minutes, not due to customers, but due to lack of experience and organization on the servers part, we headed upstairs to finally check in. We went to the front desk, they handed us two room keys and told us that our third room was not ready. We sent the first half of our party to the two rooms and patiently waited for our third room. 5, 10, 15, 20 minutes went by, and still the room was not ready. We informed them that we had reservations for 530 and that our taxi would be picking us up at 5. The girl at the desk, said "I don't know what to tell you" and "housekeeping is not done yet", well, that is unacceptable. After arguing with the girl for a good 5 minutes and her telling me over and over she didn't know what to tell me, I told her to find the manager and maybe he had something to tell me! Well, Justin, he was just as bad! We told him that it was unacceptable that a half hour after our said check in time our room was still unavailable. He said there's nothing he can do about it and that it would be ready soon, and my favorite line of his "I don't know what to tell you" well, that is ridiculous!! First of all you are a MANGER, act like one, get to the bottom of the situation and handle it. I asked him if I checked out a Half hour late would that be acceptable, and he didn't know what to say, or if I paid $30 less than the astronomical price i did pay would that be ok! Not once did he sympathize with our group. We told him we have reservations and he basically didn't care. The whole situation was just not handle well. He then offered is a $20 voucher to use at Oso downstairs. So let me get this straight. The twelve of us, have three rooms reserved, for two nights in July no less, spending about $2000 on rooms alone, now you make a mistake and you give us a voucher for $20, for 12 people, where we have to spend even more money at your god forsaken establishment, is this real life!? Needless to say, this manager needs a few lessons on how to "manage".
One of the rooms, we found a bug in the bed sheets, two of the rooms had flies flying around, the ac unit in one of our rooms wasn't working, and that's just to name a few things.
The workers, well, the inn should really consider putting in a break room and a break area in or around the premise for its employees. On numerous occasions we saw employees taking their "cigarette" breaks the lawns, right outside our guest rooms. Hey, to each his own, you want to smoke, that's fine, but please don't do it right outside of our room door/window!!!
This place could really use a cleaning and some managerial skills!
I do want to mention Cedric, the beach shuttle drive! What a sweetheart! So down to earth, so polite and so helpful!! Some of the other employees could learn a thing or two from him.
Judging by the rest of these reviews the inn should really reevaluate the business plan. Just sayin...
Please save yourself the hassle and do not book here!
