There should not even be a circle colored in! Terrible is too nice of a word! After viewing the lovely photos on their website, I booked our family a 5 day stay in a 2 room suite at this hotel.
I began to feel leery when I drove up to the hotel, and saw a mix of the tower of terror and Bates Motel. Dad checked us in and we began our descent into the bowels. After nearly shattering the back window of our hatcback on the low hanging sprinkler system, we approached the gaping black abyss of an open elevator shaft. We cautiously entered the foul smelling small dark box of the working elevator, and slowly arrived at our floor. The smell was nauseating. Our feet squished through the soggy carpet. Our hotel door looked as if a wild animal had clawed at it for at least several hours. The wet carpet continued throughout the room and their was moisture discoloration halfway up the walls. Their was mold along the ceiling, dead bugs were "sleeping" on the couches, the "dining room" furniture were mismatched Salvation Army rejects that apperared to be in the same condition as the door, scratched up, gnawed on and unstable. There were exposed an low hanging pipes throughout the room. The bathroom was a sandy, moldy, mess that we refused to enter. All bathroom fixtures were rusted, and there were no towels or washcloths. The television set was a 1970 relic, with permanent sticky moisture rings. out of courisity, we opened the dresser drawers and discovered hundreds of dead bugs stuck in sticky red syrup.
We promptly returned to the front desk and received a refund, with NO QUESTIONS ASKED.
After this horrifying incident, we no longer stay in choice hotels, and I am no longer allowed to book hotels for our family vacations.
