Heather

Traveled with partner, Traveled with pets
Liked: Amenities
The heat/air conditioning unit was so loud it was like a jet engine every time it came on which was every 10 minutes. It was impossible to sleep. The fan only worked on high speed even though it had two other speeds. I wanted to make the front desk aware but they were no where in sight when I came to check out. Also the pet area was very dark and not an area that I felt comfortable in. All in all I’d pass this motel by.

Dear Heather,Thank you for being our guest and sharing your experience.

This property has gone dramatically downhill in the past year alone. Very cheap repairs inside, if any at all. Duct tape over an outlet. They are just doing the very basic upkeep at the cheapest expense to them. Also found a double charge on my debit card today. We will never go there again.
Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023
Response from Coachman Inn on Dec 20, 2023
So sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. We are constantly trying to improve our property. As for the double charge on your credit card it was probably just an authorization which we do every morning and it will go away. Please check with your cc company to make sure it is gone. It may take a few days. Please call us if there is still an issue.

Mostly Good!
My daughter and I spent the night. Overall a very nice hotel and I may book there again. My only issues were the paper thin walls – we could hear the whole conversation of the gals next door if we wanted to. And, there was not recycling waste basket in our room. In this day and age, every hotel should have recycling baskets in the rooms and be actively recycling.

Was charged $25 a night dog fee because they didn’t have any dog rooms left even though the room smelled like a dog, carpet extremely dirty and scratches on bathroom door like a dog was trying to get out.
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023
Response from Coachman Inn on Oct 29, 2023
Thanks for your review, and for staying with us, you were charged a pet fee for your dog as your online reservation booked was for a standard room and not a pet rate room, when guests booked like this we charge a pet fee and assign them to specific rooms that we use for non pet rate , which you were assigned to one of those rooms hence why the room would have had a dog smell to it, sorry if our pet policy wasn't understandable to you prior to booking. Any questions with your reservations you can always call our front desk for assistance.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Upon our investigation there were no bed bugs found in the room. Sometimes it happens because bedbugs can be brought from visitors from different places also. It is hard for businesses to find them unless they are visible.
