When I first booked a room for this hotel, I was very excited. On their site, they state that there's complementary breakfast, among other amenities. However, after getting to the Inn, checking in, settling in and calling the front desk to see if they did indeed have breakfast, because it did not say so in their welcome booklet, we were... More

The hotel room wasn't super fancy but it was extremely clean. The bed, bathroom, and floor were very clean. The woman at check in was also friendly and helpful. It was a good value and centrally located.

We deeply apologize for the concerns of this trip. While investigating your booking; it was brought to our attention that Orbitz.com booked the lowest rate they found on our website ignoring the fact that it is restricted to active military personnel with valid ID. This is beyond our control as they clearly disreguarded that fact. As for the smell issue,... More

Thinking we would need only a bed for overnight, I booked the Country Hearth in Gulf Shores. I had read the reviews and knew that it might be questionable, but for just one night....and with the AAA rate it was be best value. Big mistake. The room was dark and dated--and the TV was horrible--old style and small. The office... More

We unfortunately had to stay here for one night; being one of the few hotels that allowed pets. The GM and staff we dealt with were exceptionally friendly and pleasant. However the property was a dump. Let me list the complaints: The bed was sloppily made. The room was large but the only place to sit was on the bed.... More

We deeply apologize for the concerns you experienced during your stay. Sloppily made beds, missed vacuuming and hair on the sheets is not a standard. With more than 200 customers in the same two nights this was an isolated experience. In regards to the chair, we apologize that the guest prior to your stay damaged the chair and it was... More

The walls are paper-thin in this hotel. We couldn't sleep because the couple next door was having loud sex half the night. The furniture is worn-out looking; the tv was fuzzy and small. The rate was high because it was a weekend. This has to be one of the worst hotels we ever stayed in.

We apologize for the items you had issue with back in May. Having experienced a change in management around that time some things you are reporting just now have been addressed. The televisions have been upgraded in most of the rooms to larger flat screen models. The furniture is updated as needed and worn furniture is not kept in rooms.... More
