I can overlook a lot in a room, but three things are most important: the bed, a/c, and the shower temperature/pressure. I would suggest running the shower and check that too
Also I completely understand not everything I point out is going to matter to everyone, I just try to do my best to point out as much as I can see, regardless of if it's good or bad, give my opinion, you can decide if you disagree or not. Thank you for watching.
We just returned from a trip to Tennessee and our hotel experience was horrible. I paid over $1400 for six nights because I wanted us to stay somewhere nice as it was cold and I knew we would be spending a lot of time at the hotel. While the hotel was overall nice outside of our room, the room was a nightmare, especially for the price we paid. I asked that we be moved to another room and the new room was even worse. The mattresses were rock hard, lumpy, and stained, there was no water pressure, the tub wouldn’t hold water, and the heat barely worked to the point I had to have the thermostat on 80 going the whole time just to get the room to a tolerable temperature, the fridge froze everything solid. My shoulders and neck still hurt from sleeping on those beds. We could have spent $50 a night and stayed at a much cheaper hotel and had a better experience.
There is dated and there is dirty. It wouldnt take more than an hour to do a deep clean of that room. Someone is def not doing their job or understaffed, no way the maid didnt notice the running toilet and no soap and towels is unacceptable. Also that open window sounds like a possible code violation. To me its acceptable for a one night stay as the beds are fine and no foul oder.
Heh, try the "Super 8 by Wyndham / Travellodge on 7475 w Irlo Bronson sometime. Used to be a Knights Inn "interesting" because before the changeover, the rooms were from the early 80s and looked it. Like the old old school motels with everything on one level, low rise building, no frills, etc. After their reskin with vinyl floors and replaced linens, it is interesting because they never fixed the underlying issues for a very old property. E.g. the floors are spongy because they didn't level them before slapping down LVP, the glass bottle openers on the wall are still there but under a half dozen layers of paint, my last stay I couldn't block out the windows because the curtains were broken, the room keycards are labeled with the room number, which is bad because those are trivially cloneable and will tell you precisely where to go, Hey, but at least its cheap .. at least before the resort fee.
This pertains to everything but there should be some guy who just goes to places,like hotels and has to give them a passing score to stay in business,if your building/room/ service is not up to par you have to refurb your business,fix it,knock it down and rebuild it,change your staff if they suck, etc....this place is in my opinion would be under that passing rate and in need of knocking it down.
It was a Fairfield a long time ago. It was a Ramanda inn before it become a Red Roof in like 2019. So it hasn't been a Fairfield in like at least 10ish years.
What is the point of these videos? Everyone knows you get what you pay for. People who books a 1 star hotel is expecting 5 star treatment. Plus people who book there, hell even People that work there are probably doing the best they can. But yet you make these videos, feel it's kinda disrespectful and rude.
Because a lot of hotels will have their employees put fake positive reviews on travel sites. Also, Choice Hotels should do better. They used to be a good chain, but since Covid, they've let stuff really slide.
@matthewjones12181 Then I feel like we should be getting videos about " The best budget hotels in the area". Educate the viewers. I'm sure lots of single parents saved up for months to bring kids to Disney and this all they could afford. Or some people live in similar or worst conditions. Just dislike this style of views, feels like it's taking a dig at the poor or less fortunate. Enjoy your 2025!
Love the channel, thanks for your efforts, keep up the great work

I call it the get what you paid for hotel, still better than sleeping in the car if no other hotels are available, I've had that happen before
Hey, have you ever done a video of the Vacation Village at Parkway? it's in kissimmee as im stay there in September. Love your channel
That's not that bad of a hotel lol

Very true
What's this?!?! A bad reviewed hotel was bad!?!? Oh man!?!?
yet here you are watching it. What's wrong with documenting what's wrong with a low rated hotel?
Most of the hotels in the I drive area. Are under staffing. Due to the low season.
The light are left on so most roaches stay hidden they do that in purpose. Turn them off and come back in 5 minutes to see how bad it is.
I hate walking into dark rooms! 😭
True
I was going to suggest quality inn on Polynesian Isle boulevard in Kissimmee as being the worst but now I think this one may have it beat.
Yes that one is really really bad as well

It looks like it was originally a Fairfield inn Marriott before red roof inn
It was a Fairfield a long time ago. It was a Ramanda inn before it become a Red Roof in like 2019. So it hasn't been a Fairfield in like at least 10ish years.
Let me tell you I stayed at a red roof in at Kings Dominion in Virginia and you think this is bad that hotel is much worse.
Oh man! Book marked when I ever make my way to Virginia! Lol
Ho Hotel

It's crazy to see how bad these hotels can be and that people stay in them.
