    The first night they were totally full so I had to park on the side of the street instead of on the lot. But, it seemed to be located in a safe area so everything was fine the next morning. The second night I parked much earlier and got a spot on the lot despite them being a full facility again.

    Very caring staff and the complimentary breakfast was great (milk, juice, cereal, yogurt, hot scrambled eggs, sausage links, waffles you can cook in the maker, toast, muffins).

    How dirty it was from the pool to the room.

    The pictures and the real deal was not the same. False advertisement for sure.

    Staff was rude, messed up reservation, refused to look up ADA guidelines while repeatedly violating them, and generally made our check in and stay miserable.

    The pool and one hot tub were working.

    The first room they assigned us took wreaked of smoke like someone was chain smoking in there for days. They gave us a new room. The room smell musty. The carpet hadn’t been vacuumed, comforter and sheets were stained, sheets smelled, shower drain was very rusted - so much that once water was turned on the water was orange, mattress was thin, some lights didn’t work. The staff was nice however when checking out she was outside smoking and rather than coming inside to assist me she just waved at me to drop off keys on front desk.

    The staff were pleasant.

    There was nothing we disliked about the property.

    This hotel exceeded our expectations. The price was great, the room was so cozy, clean & had convenient accommodations. We had no clue there was a pool, and it was a super cool pool with TWO hot tubs. We didn’t use them since we had the executive suite with the jacuzzi tub which was absolutely amazing. The location was awesome! Across the street from downtown with lots of restaurants, cool shops & historical sites. The breakfast was great! Staff was very friendly. All around wonderful visit, can’t wait to come again and bring our kiddos.

    I was charged 77$ but then told they couldn’t honor my stay. I am still waiting on a refund almost
    • Leisure trip

    I booked the room for a friend and it was 77$ I was told when I arrived that I needed my name on the reservation even though I was booking it for them I added my name and then was told even though I used a card that I needed to put a deposit. I told her to use the card I had made the reservation with. I had used a virtual card because I was waiting on my bank to reissue my card. She said she couldn’t do that because the booking site uses a different number so I gave her a different card that had my name on it to verify along with my license to which she told me I needed to use the same card but she had no idea what card it was because the way the booking process worked. So how would it matter or how would she know if it was the same card or not she told me she had no way of knowing but somehow that changed when I gave her my card and ID then she proceeded to ask if I was allowed or if my guest I was booking for were allowed on property. I told her yes and in fact I had stayed there for 3 weeks in between my moving to a new location after a few more minutes if her (the owners wife) making excuses and whatever she was doing she decided to not honor my reservation. So I asked for her to cancel the reservation and return my money to which I was told some excuse about it had to be done through the website I sent several emails to both but have yet to receive the 77$ I paid. I don’t know who to contact I have sent messages to booking and attempted to send messages to the apple tree. I don’t think I will be making anymore reservations I will still with comfort lodge from now on might be more costly but it’s worth it for better customer service and better quality rooms and all involved. Please advise me on the best step to get my payment refunded.
