My husband & our 2 children recently took a 'Tour de Tejas' vacation. In this vacation, a stop in Granbury was made to enjoy the comforts of a small town & the drive-in movie theatre. We checked in late on Saturday and there was a little stinch in the room, however the front desk clerk brought up some room spray and it dissipated. We were only in the room for an hour before we left to view the town & catch our late night double feature. We returned around 1:30 am. The room smelt horrible, so I called down to the front desk, and the night clerk came up. The girls had just been bathed and we doused the room in air freshener because the smell was rancid! The night clerk stated that he believed the smell was coming from the other room because those people checked out and took the last room at a near by La Quinta... an hour away. The night clerk explained to me that there were NO ROOMS available in the whole town, and I would have to drive another 1-2 hours to find a room. So my husabnd & I decided we would be safer staying. Every hour, the girls woke up crying because of the stinch, we sprayed all night! Finally, we woke @ 0600am went down to eat breakfast and came back to our room. As soon as I opened the door, I was totally taken back! The smell was AWFUL! I threw up everything I had just eaten. My youngest daughter refused to enter the room and stayed outside the room crying. I went down to the front desk to check us out, my husband went into the room to gather our belongings & I notified the front desk clerk of the room again. She immediately went upstairs and didn't even walk into the doorway and stated, "This is bad." I was told that the hotel owner/manager would contact me... however 5 days later, still no contact. I just called the hotel to speak with him/her, however to no avail.
Room Tip: If there is a small stinch, please ask for another room, or DO NOT STAY
