“No hot water & no compensation”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 April 2011

We stayed here for one night on 3-5-11. Standard room, nothing out of the ordinary (except maybe that the rooms are oversized) which is what we expected for the price. We wanted to shower before morning check-out, but even after running the hot water for awhile, it never got warmer. My husband tried taking a shower anyway, hoping it would get better, but he ended up with ice cold water. I decided to skip my shower all together. We let the front office know during checkout , and she mentioned that she received a few phone calls from other guests with hot water issues, but they were able to get their water to be hot after leaving it on for a half hour. She stated the manager wasn't in, but she was sure he would credit us for the inconvenience. Never received any contact or credit.
A big part of staying at a hotel is so you can bath, and since that wasn't possible, we will not stay here again.

We appreciate you taking the time to give us your comments at this time the circulating pump went out and that was the reason for the length of time it took to get hot water to our guest rooms. The pump has been replaced and the situation has been resolved. We apologize for the conditions that you encountered and hope you will return to give us another opportunity to show you our hospitality.

“making reservation with priceline”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 March 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We used priceline to find a motel and make a reservation. The instructions were to call the motel after the reservation was made to book what kind of sleeping arrangments were needed for the room. When we called they said that asking for 2 beds would cost more. It just made us mad that if the motel is agreeing to use Priceline then they should stick with the terms priceline has set meaning the cost is set and agree to the sleeping arrangement when we call. Because the motel was not accomodating and they were not helpful on the phone. We will not stay there again. My suggestion is the motel needs to remove themselves from the Priceline web site and take a class on customer service.

“Great place to stay. Great value!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 December 2010 via mobile
1
person found this review helpful

I recently stayed here and was pleasantly surprised. I am on a budget and have stayed at the town and country motel (which is a dump) when I visit Sheridan. Definitely worth spending the extra 20 bucks. Great hotel. Very clean! Great service. Friendly staff. I have a one and a half year old and feel very comfortable bringing her here in the future for stays. I love how clean and fresh it felt to stay here.
