Would you ever post a bad review about another Inn? I just stayed at a place that made me want to leave before we even set our bags down. The wallpaper was peeling off the walls, paint was yellowed and peeling everywhere, all the curtains needed a good washing, there were holes in the wall from the back of the door hooks, openings in the window where the duck tape that held the inadequate a/c unit in the window was peeling away, huge gray cobwebs hanging from the ceiling, old, stained rugs, burnt out light bulbs and bath rooms that desperately needed the old nasty caulk removed. The mattress was way too soft and sagged and the pillows were flat and old. I could go on and on. It was terrible!
My DH called ahead to be sure the place was air conditioned since it was supposed to be over 100 on Saturday and was assured they had central air and window units in the few rooms that "needed a boost". Not! The common areas were horribly hot and all the rooms had window units. Ours never really got cool enough for our liking but it was tolerable - if you didn't want to go in the common areas.
There was a restaurant also and that seemed to be run differently, maybe different managers. The food wasn't fancy but was very good and not included in the room. There were four of us (we went down to visit one of our kids) sat in the dining room and played cards for an hour after dinner was over while the staff cleaned up.
The rates were low, but that seemed status quo for the area. How do you say something to an innkeeper about this when it is soooo bad? I had always said I wouldn't post a negative review on an inn and instead choose to not put anything.
