Vagabond Inn Redding, Redding

1 night never again! We found a hypodermic needle that fell from the toilet lid on to the floor. That toilet receptacle has never seen a drop of bleach. Unknown container under the toilet lid. Brown, dirty disgusting. Fell down in the very slippery shower, not kidding, almost broke my back AND a metal bar was sticking out from the bed frame and we tripped over - very painful. No sympathy! Oh so sorry...this has never happened before - we will give you a $15 discount. Well we are contacting the Health department. Don't risk staying here. You may not leave alive!

We asked for a room that allowed our dog. The guy said they had none left, so take this room around the back, leave your key in the room, and sneak out instead of checking out in at the front office, otherwise we'd be charged out the butt for the dog. We were too tired to argue, so we took it. The room was hot, the window wouldn't open, the A/C wouldn't turn on because, as the sign says once you're in your room, the front desk controls the air. The room was dirty, the TV didn't work, the remote had no batteries, only two of the 7 lamps in the room had bulbs and only one of them worked. No fridge, no ice bucket, no coffee/tea, no soap or shampoo. The place was a dirty dive. Don't stay here, just keep driving. Of the entire 3000 mile trip, this was the worst place we stayed- by a wide mile.

This place is a dump!!! STAY AWAY!!! Came up to Redding for a conference at a local church and it almost ruined my entire stay. The customer service was horrible, the sheets were filthy, the air/heater was broken and made noise all night. The bed was very, very uncomfortable and the smell was awful! We initially went back to the office and asked for my money back but they told be they would keep half of what I paid, so we stuck it out and stayed! They made us feel like because they knew we were leaving town soon, they didn't have to treat us with any dignity, they already had our money! Just look at the other reviews and see for yourself! Where is the BBB when you need em?!?

Old stained, lumpy mattress with broken springs that pokes through the fabric. Torn, stained sheets and Pillows. Grimy bathroom floors (we needed to put down towels) Rug and walls had spills all over them. Pool was closed/broken. We were quoted a price on the phone then they tried to up it when we got there. The "continental breakfast" was bad coffee, orange juice and 6 donuts that were gone when we made it to the office at 7 am. And a dog in a car barked all night even though we called the front desk 3 times.

My granddaughter and I stayed at this motel on July 7,2007. The temperature was well over 100 degrees, as we expected. What we didn't expect was a room without a working air conditioner. The desk clerk responded to my complaint with the offer of a fan. She was very abrupt when we checked out the next morning, no apology or even courtesy offered.The room was inexpensive enough but with the heat and the dirtiness of the bathroom, it was like paying to sleep on the sidewalk.

Altho the room was clean & quiet, the shower control was broken, NO TV remote, only 1 light bulb for 3 lamps, NOT heated pool, AND NO PHONE! The nice night clerk did give us a bulb & a remote,but the day clerk got all snotty when I politely asked for a small discount. (this was not a $65 room!) She said we should have asked for another room, but I said WHY should we have to move at 9:30 at night? The Manager refuses to take or return my calls & has refused to discount the price, after a sweet agent from Vagabond spoke with him. We've always stayed at & enjoyed Vagabonds, but this one should have it's franchised revoked. Carol
