Don't Trust Your Booking be what you chose!

I booked a NON smoking room but when we got there it was a smoking room! My confirmation said nonsmoking but the motel's reservations said smoking room. They said it Was Hotels.com's fault..since we were evacuating from a hurricane, we really didn't have much choice but to stay. So NO, I'm not very happy with the stay! Besides everything being yellow and sticky and smelling like smoke...there were ants,broken fixtures,light switches and floor tiles.

The room was reasonably priced and clean. Very loud and disruptive being along the highway and apparently on the path of the Air Force Base. Loud jets continued all day and well into the night. Staff was amazing tho cleaning room and fresh linens daily. The last night of my stay the power went out and I was able to get a full refund on t for the last night.

It was a decent stay but I got accused of stealing pillows when I know for a fact there was only four pillows in the room! I didn’t get my deposit back when we made sure the room was spotless the only thing was the pillows! Overall though it was a pretty okay stay. They do need to fix the cracks in the bottom of the door, we could hear everyone’s conversation walking by our room!

The staff when we got there was accomodating because they switched us to room on the ground floor after we found that we were put in a room upstairs and they didn't have an elevator My husband can not do stairs very well. What we were very disappointed about was that the floors were so dirty that we had to always have shoes on to walk around in the room or our feet would be black. And one day when we returned to our room it had not been cleaned at all. Bedding was unmade, no clean towels, etc. Also we discovered a roach crawling across the wall. Thankfully we only found one.
