My Stay
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/30/06
I was traveling with my 10 month old daughter and we were on a tight buget. We went to go visit her father who is in the millitary. The motel was very close, 3 minutes away from the base. It was also a marina so we woke up to sun shine, rain and fog. There were cute little shops around the motel that were fun to look at once and it would take you about 30 minutes to do them all. There is a great home made pasta place right up the side walk but no where to just buy sodas. We were a drive away from a gas station or grocery store so it was a real bumber when we wanted to take a walk, There really wasen't many places that we could walk because it was so steap in the area. We were constantly woken up by the sound of a large boats horn...and you continued to hear them all day. Other than the occational large ship or submarine that would go by it really wasen't that great for the baby. Also the rooms were semi-tighty. My first room had a broken dead bult that was quickly fixed when they came in the next morning. During the winter and spring months they dont have anyone on duty to keep an eye on things. They are stickly open from 9-4ish. I complain about my room not having the items that the web site said they would have. I was quickly moved but when I told them that they were false advertising, it seemed like they just wanted me out of there hair. Each room is said to have a refridgerator, oven, stove top, microwave, and coffee maker. One of my rooms was missing the stove top and oven and the other was missing the oven. All of the rooms on the second floor are run down and really need remodeling plus are missing Ovens and stove tops...ect. The walls were half painted but never finished, the paintings didn't match any patterns or designs. It was like they just grabbed random paintings and hung them over bad spots in the walks. The carpiteing was old, smelly(moldy) and was coming up. There were carpeting tacs that were stabbing me in the foot constantly. My daughter was crawling on them!!! If you stay there for a week or more, they only clean your room once a week.....but the cleaners are great people! They also have a slight insect problem(small baby ants) EVERYWHERE!!! They had great customer service but they amount that i paid weekly.... I would like to spend a little more to be at a safer place for my child, I know I won't ever go again.
Also the internet connection was terrible!!! It never worked!
