we stayed here on while house hunting in Florida. The photographs online must have been taken 30 years ago. We asked for a non smoking room, and were told there was only one left, however all the rooms on the second floor where we were were all marked NO SMOKING and they were vacant the whole time we were there.
The room was awful, paint peeling, cigarette burns in the microwave (WAS NO SMOKING ROOM REMEMBER), filthy bathroom, mold, no caulking in the shower, holes in the towels, and stained sheets. I used the hair dryer, and it cuts the power in the room by about half. Made the lights so dim you could not see if the shades were closed. The air conditioner did NOT drain to the outside, but into the room all over the carpet.
I brought these things to the attention of the manager -Paul- , and was told they are renovating. Not one room was being worked on, and we were there for FIVE days.Oh, now about the coffee pot in the room, I went to make coffee the first morning, and there was still coffee in it, with about 1/2 inch of MOLD. I took the pot to the manager, and he put a new pot in the room... still didn't use it. The safe in the room did NOT work either. This place seems like the type used BY THE HOUR. One guest had several different guests at all hours of the night. The continental breakfast does NOT have fruit as shown, just sugar pastries and cold cereal. The microwave in the breakfast room kept tripping the breaker. The manager came in and used the bathroom which is off of the breakfast area, and did NOT wash his hands, then proceeded to handle the food. We didn't eat there again. We have VIDEO of this as well as a few pictures, and I will be submitting them to the city of Bradenton Health Department.
