Business traveller
Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I booked a room online for my employee. She has a bad allergy to strong fragrances and can not breathe in areas with strong smells. The Inn had FOUR air fresheners installed around/in her room, but the staff/manager refused to remove them. They gave her a fan and told her to open the outside door, but it was freezing outside! She couldn't stay, and the manager refused a partial refund. The staff rudely asked her if she was leaving already as she waited for her ride to pick her up! I understand I should have verified if the Inn used fragrances, but the level of service was very disappointing. I'm never booking here again.
