The outside of the hotel was clean and appeared well kept. The front desk staff were wonderful and polite, I don’t want to make that very clear the workers were great. Once I got into my room there was a chunk of wood missing from the bathroom door, the shower head was held together by athletic tape, the mirror was tarnished all around the outsides, the red chair had multiple stains covering it, and there was dried food stuck to the bed skirt. It just overall felt very dirty and unkept. For the cost of the room, I was really disappointed in the quality.

Im very sorry you had to experience that. If you would have let the front desk know we would have taken care of that immediately. I didn't realize someone broke the shower and door the night before. I will have a meeting with Housekeeping staff to inform us on these issues.

Keep up the good work!!!
The stay got off to a little rocky start. We weren’t able to get into our room till about 1.5 hrs after checkin. The room wasn’t ready yet. However the hotel staff were amazing. We received a little discount on the room, morning staff opened the pool a little early for us so my kids could go swimming. We love this hotel, always a great stay, clean and awesome staff!

The stay was fine as was the room, this is usually my favorite hotel in town. But I guess it is under new management and they have changed a bunch of this things in the pool and common areas that make it less of a fun place for groups and families to stay. It just ruined the reason it was my fav hotel, will probably stay elsewhere when traveling with a group for sports from now on

First off the place was super dirty! Our bed was disgusting and dirty with black marks all over. Nathan that checked us in was nice he did the best he could but sometimes when we can’t do enough we need to call someone for help. Also couldn’t get access to the pool. After speaking to Nathan he swore up and down it was user error, whatever there’s a camera there they can easily pull up video footage of multiple times Nathan redid our card. Never will I stay there again. Also check in was about 30 mins because Nathan said that their system was down.
Response from david on Feb 16, 2024
Im very sorry that was his first shift. I did have a meeting with him and showed him how he can improve from this review. the system was down but that was a maintance from choice corporate so that was out of our control.

Rude staff, my credit card had a preauthorization after I asked to extend my stay. Only two bath towels provided for a room that slept four guests. And of course the water park contributed to the poor stay. Kids running unattended up and down the hall being loud and rowdy. This occurred from Friday through Sunday. Property was grungy and dirty. This is the second time I’ve stayed at a Country Inn and it’ll be the last. Potential guests beware.
Response from Hersh on Feb 16, 2024
Im very sorry about your stay. You did not let staff know about your issues and people only usually ask to extend their stay when they are enjoying their stay so that is how we took it since no issues were brought to our attention.

We stayed here overnight to be able to have a family night and swim. My kids loved the pool! I will say that I’d stay here again strictly for the pool. The one staff member was rather rude to my FIL who specifically requested a first floor room due to mobility issues. He was promised a room on first floor but ended up staying on third floor. There were stains on the bedding and the pull out couches in which you can use as another bed (esp since we had 2 adults and 3 kids) were dirty with food crumbs in the sheets. The breakfast was decent!

Mold and mildew in windows. Mildew smell every time the air turned on for heat or cool. Their explaination- its the weather. No. Simple good cleaning would prevent this kind of mildew and mold.

The room was dirty..dirty tub, dirty bathroom, it stunk in the room, the beds were uncomfortable, i used to be a housekeeper in a motel back in the 70's and 80's during the oil boom and we had the cleanest rooms...we were not pleased at all about the stay in your motel..the bed skirts were dirty...need to clean a lot better especially when the price is over $100.00...didn't even want to take a shower...the mirrors were dirty etc., etc...need better cleaner rooms...

I really want to love this place! However not so good overall. Room was not that clean either was the pool area. Also FYI if you're planning as a family NO food in the pool area and not good seating options for enjoying a pizza with the family.

We stay here often! However this time and the last time we stayed our room has had some issues. This time there was food left in the fridge, and things on the floor like it maybe didn’t get vacuumed all the way, the door wasn’t locked when we first checked in. I had mentioned it to hotel staff and he said he would let his manager know but nothing was ever said to us. Not huge deals but would have been nice to know that it was acknowledged.

I liked that it was quiet, friendly staff, swimming pool was nice & clean, room was comfortable and clean. The one thing I did not like was breakfast. I liked the options provided, however, the quality and taste of the food items was poor in comparison to other hotels with the same offerings. This one thing would make me stay elsewhere unfortunately as it is one of the deciding factors in where we stay. We have 3 kids and the convenience of a hot breakfast is important and not having to leave to get it. Both mornings the breakfast was terribly disappointing. Overall, we would stay again but I hope to have a better breakfast experience. Thank you.
