Quality Inn, Cave City

The first room we were given was filthy. There was dry cereal on the floor by the beds, a red sticky substance (spilled soda or jelly)on the nightstand, dirty blankets on the beds and the bathroom had not been cleaned! When I went to complain to the front desk about the condition of the room I interrupted the night clerk smoking a cigarrette and having a drink with her boyfriend out front. She gave me another room and told me that she had received a lot of complaints that night about housekeeping issues. The second room was cleaner, but not by much! The floor hadn't been vacuumed and the sink, shower and bathroom hadn't been cleaned. Since all the other hotels in the town were booked for the night with a racing convention in town and I was traveling with 3 children I had no choice but to stay there. The night clerk said she would make sure we didn't have to pay full price because of the problems, but they still charged us the full $80/night rate.
