Radisson Hotel Jamestown, Jamestown

I was in town to visit the Ball-Arnaz Center down the street, so this was my first visit. Man, this hotel was just plain bad. The room, actually, wasn't bad. It had a good view of town and was recently redone. The infrastructure of the hotel seems to be a major problem, however. First, the elevator broke. I was up several floors, so we had to hike up the stairs. Second, the desk clerk was real bad. Not in good bad, but in poorly skilled and talented. He was no help and actually gave us wrong directions as Jamestown is not an easy town to get around in. Third, the dining room was low budget. It was the kind of place where you may want to eat in but, once you settle in a check the place out, the low hotel standards and service take over and kind of force you out to another place to eat. Much of the hotel grounds were poorly lit, and a drunk was sitting outside the door to the parking garage, having a few belts and bothering people. We stayed here until around 7p and then left, the elevator being the final straw. We ended up down the road by the freeway (I-86?) in the Comfort Inn. Been awhile since I walked out of a hotel after paying the bill. To top off this mess Comfort Inn HQ didn't refund our fee. Too bad this place blows as it is right downtown and next to the Lucy Center, which, I'm sure, is a big tourist draw to the area. Hotels like this don't do much to encourage people to come here. Jamestown is down on its luck these days, and you can almost trace that to the attitude of people at the hotel. It's as if they don't care. And, sad to say, it showed.

Love this hotel & staff. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This property in now a Clarion hotel and has gone through extensive renovations since it's Holiday Inn and Radisson days. I almost cancelled my reservation after reading some of the reviews. I'm glad I didn't. The romms are completely remodeled and include those Select Comfort air beds. Very Comfortable! The hallways all had new carpeting, paint, and decor. The lobbys were all recently done as well. There was plently of off street parking when I was there, as well as a parking garage directly next door. I bypassed the interstate exit motels because i was entertaining clients that evening and I wanted to be walking distance from the many fine dining and club locations downtown. I knew we would be havings a few martinis and didn't want to drive the 2 miles back to the interstate. I stay at Choice Hotels 80-90 nights a year and this is one of their finer properties.

My wife and I recently stayed there and had a horrible experience. The hotel was in dire need of repair and the service was terrible. We waited to be served breakfast for nearly an hour (1) person - the hostess was the waitress and we kidded her about being the cook too.

I recently stayed there for a night. I would have stayed longer but this place was gross! The sheets were stained, there was hair in the bathtub and the room smelled like mildew! The glasses were dirty and the towels looked like they were 15 years old. The hotel was defenitely over priced! I left the hotel with no help at all from the young man at the desk who looked about 16. Never again!

The sheets had holes and hair all over them! If anyone stays there, they need to make sure the sheets are clean! ick! The towels were old and dingy. The room service was overpriced and the pool wasnt opened! Radisson or RADHASBEEN!

The young man at the desk was rude. The rooms were gross. The towels felt like sand paper, when I tried to complain about the room, the woman owner was very very rude with me. I WILL NEVER GO BACK! I did leave and I went to the Best Western...Great service there and soft towels!!

The people were very unpleasnt, the whole hotel was dirty! I had a room for half of the saturday night! Gross, room was gross, linen was filthy, dishes were moldy! ICK ICK...dont stay...lobby gentleman was no help just like the lady who owns it! She was rude and acted like it was my fault that her hotel was not up to standards!

I thought my stay was horrible. I got bit up by something during the night, the pillow cases were stained up, dirty dishes...must I go on? -100. How did they even earn a name like radisson? Food was overcooked and room was overpriced!

The front desk was friendly as were the housekeepers! The towels were so old and dingy, it was like drying off with sand paper! The sheets were so old that there were holes in the corner! The dishes were gross...can you say food poisoning? I got bit up all over my legs from fleas or something! Horrible and never again!
