I am here right now, and i thought i would post my review while i am here. We are in town for the Nascar race in Dover. I personally did not book this hotel, a member of our group of 17 did several months ago since it is hard to get a hotel anywhere near Dover race weekend.
We arrived at noon, the woman at the front desk was pleasant and said no rooms were ready yet check back in a hour. so we went to lunch , came back and we were given a room on the 2nd floor. As we got off the only elevator, the hall had a strong smoke smell! its a non smoking hotel. we got to our room, opened the door to find that the carpet was filthy!! it looked like it has not been vacuumed in a long time.The air conditioner was covered it thick dust, and the bathroom shower door was well yuck.
We went down to the front desk and told the woman . She was very sorry and took 15 min to check to see if another room was ready. She gave us another room , which seemed much better.The shower door is missing, and a shower curtain is in its place. the dirt/scum from where the door was is bad.
Since its race weekend, and we are only staying 2 nights, and everything else is booked we have to make do.
Later , a few hours after we got our room, i was down at the front desk to ask a question and the couple in front of me was complaining about their room and how dirty it was. It was the same room that we moved from, and they didn't bother to clean it before they passed it off to someone else.
The breakfast, which was hard boiled eggs, mini ( very mini) muffins, beagles,bread, make your waffle ,2 types of cereal, 1 type of instant oatmeal, and apples, coffee, and juice.
I noticed today as i passed by a housekeeping cart in the hall that on 1 side of the cart are all the clean towels, and on the other side is all the dirty sheets and towels, touching each other, all in one cart. Again yuck!!
In all this hotel cost us 85.00 a night, which is on the cheep side, and again it was not my choice, but all i would like is it to be clean!No frills just clean!!
