Dear Sir/Madam: I am writing you to inform you of our profound displeasure of our experience at this hotel for the nights of 06-24-2022 and 06-25-2022. First, the staff at this hotel was very pleasant and accommodating to my wife and to me. I was a business traveler for 45+ years and have stayed in many different hotels all over the world. The stay as this hotel is, without a doubt, my worst experience ever. My comments are as follows: The advertisement for this property on the Internet and your website is totally false. Unlike as advertised there was no: a. Free breakfast served in the morning b. Coffee or infused water c. There was only one working ice maker in the entire building d. There were no vending machines or drinks / snacks in the hotel. The snack room was completely empty. e. The indoor pool was closed down. f. The exercise facilities were closed down. While I understand that we are coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have stayed at hotels during the entire pandemic that have still offered all the amenities that your hotel failed to provide as advertised. The worst part of stay was when we went to bed the first night around 11:30 P.M. and pulled back the covers. There were stains all over the fitted sheet and the top sheet. The stains were what appeared to be make-up, food, and yes, even blood stains! I went down to the lobby, but could not find anyone. So, my wife and I put a blanket on top of the bed comforter and slept of top that night. In the morning I checked all the stains to see if they could be removed by water and soap as well as for blood with hydrogen peroxide. Water and soap removed some of the stains that is indicative that the sheets had not been changed prior to our arrival. Yes, some of the stains foamed when hydrogen peroxide was applied that is a clear indicator of blood! As an FYI, I am a retired chemist / biologist / environmental engineer. The next morning, I let the front desk know what happened and politely asked to have the sheets changed while we were out of the hotel that day. They did do as we requested. Refer to the attached photos of what the original sheets looked like. I would have to send the video that I took of the foaming hydrogen peroxide under a different format as it is too large to attach to this E-mail. As a note, the room smelled like cigarettes and the bathroom had a strong odor indicative of a pesticide. We killed three bugs in our room during our stay. The toilet seat was also broken. In closing, this is the first time that I have ever written to complain about a hotel in more than 1,000+ stays over my professional career. I have not posted a review of this property on the Internet yet, but am considering doing so. At the very least, you should correct your advertising and ensure that new guests have clean and healthy room conditions (e.g. change the sheets for new arrivals). PS: we never got a response to this!
