This very pretty motel has a lot going for it ON THE OUTSIDE of the rooms. After my initial, comfortable stay in a basic King room during 2022, I never expected my second and third stays would be so poor.
Four nights each within five months, in TWO DIFFERENT ROOM #s of the same type: king bed, bathroom and small kitchen area...
During my last two stays (see below), FRONT DESK STAFF were alerted to the problems on a daily basis. On the third day of my most recent stay, I was offered to move to a different room, but after unpacking and having a full schedule each day of my 5 days there, it was extremely inconvenient for me...especially to pack in the morning and then get into a new room in the evening. AND, there was no guarantee that it would be a better room!
I asked, "WHY don't housekeepers (who clean the rooms!) report the disrepair, broken items, bad smells or water gushing out from inside the wall...things they discover when they clean?!"
No good answer was ever provided.
At the end of my stay in June, I was told to write the owner and explain. I was credited a small refund of my last night there.
Last week, the front desk deducted a small portion of my last night's room rate.
Details:
JUNE, 2023: kitchen sink garbage disposer had rotting/food inside of it, which left a foul smell in kitchen. Toilet backed up twice; maintenance removed it and replaced it, but left a huge mess on bathroom sink area and the floor. A/C unit had so much filth inside of it; when turned 'on', it blew debris into room. Carpet is old and dirty. Room smells of mildew/mold and there are no windows, except for front door.
NOVEMBER, 2023: Clean kitchen. Faucet on bathroom sink loose and wiggles around on sink top; spout opening for water badly calcified and screw-on mesh screen was removed to view the overly calcified spout. When bathtub faucet turned on, the force of water pushes it away from wall and water sprays out from inside the wall, becoming even worse when shower knob is pulled to open shower head spray. Room has very dirty carpet and, again, the smell of the room is horribly mildewed/mold.
I'll never return to 7 Springs Inn & Suites.
