Hello Nabil, Thank you for your review and comments. I'm sorry your stay wasn't up to our normal standards. We do only have one elevator at the moment, as we're waiting on a part from our service provider. As for the cleanliness of the room - was this brought to our staff's attention? We would have gladly moved you to another room or sent a housekeeper up to deal with any issues. Hope to see you again.

Mark

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
Room has absolutely no amenities. No kettle no coffee maker no dishes. For a “residence” I would expect a few kitchen items. You can tell this is a dorm room masquerading as a hotel room. But no attempt to make it a bit more comfortable. Very loud from the people partying out side to the paper thin walls. You can hear everything. No couch or chairs to sit on. Kitchen has a table an 2 kitchen chairs. Now for this bare bones room i could tolerate it if the price was reasonable but the price was over $300. Will never stay here agin. Has a prison vibe to it.

Hi Mark, Thanks for your review and comments. I'm sorry you didn't find your stay to be comfortable. Although not provided in every suite, we do provide some kitchen items in the shared community kitchen on the 1st floor. Should you ever encounter noise related issues, etc., we encourage guests to contact our 24/7 front desk staff. The entire city and area was sold out, which drove up prices for available rooms. Some sports teams had to stay as far as London due to lack of inventory. Thanks for staying with us.

It was a pleasurable 4 days. Peaceful. The only complaint is they were doing construction on the property right outside my window that started at 7 a.m. Other than that I would highly recommend if you’re ever in Windsor.

Hi Duranna, Thanks so much for the review and comments. Yes, there is a lot of construction on campus, which should be finished very soon. We have asked for the contractors working at our location to try and start as late as possible to not impact guest stays. Due to the heat, they've been wanting to start earlier. Hoping you'll visit us another time.

How did I not notice this is a DORM
I did not realize this was a dorm when I booked this. I guess I did not look closely. The place felt like a dorm, with old furniture and cheap beds. But the reason our family left this place for another motel is because our rooms ( 2 bedrooms and a small entrance room that had a fridge and microwave, but no sofa or anything ) smelled badly. Originally I thought it was musty. I have a very sensitive nose. It smelled like the smell of the burnt wood you get by sawing a lot. When I finally guessed as we were leaving, he said there was a carpentry shop on the roof and they were doing summer work. If you don't mind a dorm room and you can't smell very well, this might be the place for you. I'm glad we left.

Hello Priscilla, I'm sorry you didn't realize what you were booking. We are an affordable hotel-like summer accommodation, which is included in our property description and accompanying photos on our web listings. We do not have a carpentry shop on the roof, but we have had roofer completing some work during the week. We would have happily shown you another room to assure you the musty smell was isolated and may have been due to an A/C being off, etc. We've receive many positive online reviews, so I'm sorry we weren't what you were expecting. All the best!

Hello Robert. Thanks so much for your comments. We apologize that your recent stay with us was not up to our normal standards.
