Well this is an AdVeNtUrE.....
We stayed in a basic double queen room, so our expectations weren't excessive - and neither should yours be!
Here is my journey:
We arrived to our dimly lit room with no overhead lights - reminiscent of a basement apartment I rented in my 20's. The room is large, sparsely decorated and mildly clean. After checking out my new digs for the night, I wandered over to take a breather on my relaxing outdoor space and noticed that the screen door to the patio was bent and didn't close fully, so the notion of leaving the door open to air out the basement feel was fleeting as my fear of small creatures entering the room took over. I continue on and take a seat to enjoy the small patio provided. I do have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed our tranquil view of chipped paint on the railings, cracked sidewalk at my feet and chainlink fence by the dumpsters. I even got to wake up to what I believe were trash trucks emptying said dumpsters the next morning - another story, for another time. Off to bed for me.....except the loud whining of the dated mini-fridge is incessant in my ears all night...so that's annoying!
The next morning I awake from my slumber, the bed was actually pretty comfortable! I thought about showering but then opted not to shower due to the conditions of the tub, seems like it needed a good wipe down. So I took a wash cloth bath and move on to make my precious Cup o' Joe, when I shockingly realized that I needed to wipe down the coffee maker prior to use, its a little grimey. Why not just go to the lobby for coffee one may ask? Well, since I'm a country mile away from the lobby, with no coffee to fuel my adventure, I decide to wipe down my coffee making apparatus and serve the expired coffee provided. Its not extremely exired, should be ok right?!? After surviving my expired cup of coffee, I take care of my morning business and notice that housekeeping graciously left me about a quarter of a roll of TP from the previous guest. I guess it's better than an empty roll? Could be worse.....kinda like my stay here. It can always be worse. Ok for one night but bring some Clorox wipes and low expectations.
