Find Hotels by Independent in Sandy Ridge

"This was by far the most heinous place I’ve ever stayed. Stains all over the carpet, mattress, blankets, walls, ceiling, shower curtain. There were cigarette burns through the blankets and sheets. The window heat/AC unit had a layer of gunk on it years old. Dirty tissues were stuffed in the cracks of the window with a piece of filthy tape to “hold the window closed”. The gap in the door to the outside was large enough for anything that is most definitely living in that space to come and go as they please along with the ice cold winter air. The $175 I spent at Walmart on fabric sanitizers, Ozium air bombs, and a HEPA air purifier weren’t enough to even touch how bad the smell is of that place and everything that had the misfortune of being in our luggage and entering the room. If you’ve never felt like you needed to light your suitcase on fire to kill whatever smells and creatures are in it before taking it back in your house, this will be your first. When I tell you this was the worst way I’ve ever spent $675 ($225/night), and quite possibly much more on trauma therapy in the coming months, I am not being the least bit funny. "

"This could be a lovely hotel, but I’d need of maintenance and cleaning. The room was not clean, the ceiling was coming down in the bathroom area, a broken lamp was on the floor, terrible smoke odor in the room, one set of towels for two days in a king room. The front desk staff was friendly and the location was good."

"Cigarette holes all through the blankets, tv remote control did not work, thick layers of dust on curtains, and dust webs around the ceiling corners. Its very dated, but that can be overlooked if more thorough cleaning was completed. "

"Lists a gym but theres a sign on the door that says it's closed. No hot water the first morning I was there, shade blinds were broken and stuffed above the window, there was light staining on the comforter as well. Front desk staff had an "oh well too bad, don't care" attitude about every issue. "

"Clean rooms friendly staff "

"Fine stay. Simple place. Clearly just renovated, but done in a decent way. I did hear a bit of noise both nights (dogs, kids), but nothing I couldn't sleep through."

"Star gazing & wine tasting was amazing! Staff extremely helpful. Excellent food. Check into the activities available for each day of your stay BEFORE you get there. Book early since the number of people for each activity can be limited. Some activities only available certain days."
