Horrible experience! Room was in the basement, smelled like sewage, had mold, and bed was broken, construction going on, famous chef was actually the young girl who took our order. Owner was very rude and nasty and charged us an extra $300 on our credit card. Owner even filed theft charges against us. Entire experience was terrible and everything is WAY overpriced. Our experience in more detail: I booked a $300 a night luxury room for Fri and Sat. I was told over the phone by the owner that it was the best room they had. I also purchased a private dinner for Saturday night to be cooked by their famous chef that was going to cost us $200. What we got was a room in the basement that was FAR from luxury. Just walking down to the room you were hit with the smell of sewage and a damp wet feeling. There was a dehumidifier going in the corner (not a good sign). We were immediately not happy but since we drove 3 hours to get there we decided to give it a try. We decided to have dinner there and test out the food. Dinner was a joke! There was construction going on all night and the workers had kerosene heaters going and the fumes were blowing strait into the small dinning area. It was really gross to smell that and eventually starting bothering us. The guests at the other table were also complaining about it. When my husband got up to try and shut the door so the fumes would not blow in on us the owner came over and got nasty with him. In a very condescending tone she asked if they were bothering him. He politely told her it was the kerosene that was bothering us. She had the heaters turned off and our dinner arrived at our table. The food was ok, not terrible. Definitely not worth $40 dollars a plate. Plus you have to pay extra for a side salad! We would have had much better dinner at a local steak house. We were confused about the dinner because we expected a famous chef to do better on a simple meal like we had. When we asked about the chef we were informed that the chef was on vacation and that the young girl filling our water was the person making our meal! She did not look to be older than 18. That night we realized that the bed was broken and we had to fight from rolling off of it all night. We also starting developing terrible headaches and our sinuses starting getting so stuffed we could not breath. We had no idea why this was happening until the next morning while packing to leave I noticed black mold. By this time we had enough. We were tired from not sleeping, and very sick from the mold not to mention all we could smell was sewage! We packed our bags and went to the front desk to inform them that we were leaving. This is when the fun really started. The owner became very angry as soon as she saw our bags. We told her that we were leaving. She very angrily told us we had to pay for Saturday nights room as well as the dinner we had scheduled for that night. I politely told her I already paid too much money on the basement room that made us sick and I was not going to pay for another night if we were not staying there and that the dinner was supposed to be cooked by a famous chef but that he is gone now. She again got very angry and refused to let us leave unless we paid for EVERYTHING. Eventually she agreed to only charge us for the night we stayed. We signed our receipt and ran for the hills. We thought our experience with Debbi Miller was over at this point. We were wrong. Five min after leaving she called us accusing us of stealing bath robes! We told her we did not have them but that we would be happy to come back so she could check our car and bags. She then told us that we probably ditched them at the side of the road and hung up us. She then called back again and put her maid on the phone to stress how we must have stolen the robes. My husband again told her we did not take the robes and asked her what she wanted from us to solve this problem. Her response was hanging up on us again. The next day we got a phone call from the sheriffs department informing us she filed charges against us for theft! The officer on the phone thought it was a total joke and was laughing with my husband on the phone. He told us she has filed several other similar reports on customers. She also has 16 reports filed AGAINST her from people who have stayed there! The court later dismissed our charges. However, we later noticed that she charged us an extra $300 dollars on our credit card! I have no idea how she can do this because the strange thing is that the charges were from the day she ran our card in the office. These mysterious charges did not show up until a few days later. We think she gave herself a very large tip illegally. We are currently pursuing the issue. Also, every review I have left has been taken down. One review company contacted me to tell me that she sent them a letter from the FBI stating that I am an internet hacker. All I had to do a send in my receipt and they put my review back up. However, other review sites are not. She is doing this to lots of people who leave bad reviews. Do not trust positive reviews and know that there would be more negative ones if she was not having them illegally removed. Owner is insane and out of touch with reality! She should be paying us for ruining our weekend and not stealing from us!
