Josh Brace Review of Residence Inn Uptown
Beware of ants!!!
Beware of ants!!!
My fiance and I were having a much needed get away and booked a 1 bedroom executive suite with a jacuzzi tub about 2 or 3 months ahead of our trip. This hotel room splurge was unusual for us, so we were really looking forward to it! We were happy with the room when we first checked. We noticed an ant in the bathroom and kitchen. It was just one or two so we didn't think much of it.
After dinner we came back to the room to watch tv and relax. A few minutes after grabbing a glass of water I noticed an ant on my glass. Not good, but it was just one ant. The living room was a bit chilly so I went to grab a blanket from the closet and surprise, more ants (yes plural this time). Around the same time my fiance saw ants in the bathroom.
At this point we began inspecting the room. Ants were crawling out from the carpet and into the kitchen. There were ants on our suitcase. And we even spotted 2 on the bed.
We called the front desk. There were no other executive suites available. This was a major bummer given we had been looking forward to this for months! They put us in a studio.
The room we ended up in was comprable to the types of rooms we usually book at more affordable hotels for a lower rate. After seeing the studio I called the front desk to see if they could reduce the price. They took twenty bucks off the nightly rate, which was still higher than we would normally pay for a hotel. Had we known the type of room we would have ended up in, we would have just booked a room at a more affordable hotel.
Avoid the ants and save yourself the hassle and disappointment. Book elsewhere!
