“Return Visit Every November”

For the first time I was in a handicap room. I was not given a choice. There were some good and some bad features.

For the first time I was in a handicap room. I was not given a choice. There were some good and some bad features. I liked the had rails in the tub, but did not like the flexible shower arrangement or the difficulty getting into and out of the tub. The bedroom lacked a lamp near the chair. Also the room was near the end of the corridor. The highway traffic noise was bothersome. Room temperature control worked very well. Staff was excellent: at reception, in the breakfast area and housekeeping.

“Bazaar experience from unusual smells in the hotel”

Spent 3 nights here for 2 days of Longwood Gardens visit. To us the location is good and easy to access the garden. Staff are friendly, 1F common area is clean and pleasant, breakfast (included) staff was diligent and never left any container empty..... definitely 5 star to the staff. Well, here's… lisää

Spent 3 nights here for 2 days of Longwood Gardens visit. To us the location is good and easy to access the garden. Staff are friendly, 1F common area is clean and pleasant, breakfast (included) staff was diligent and never left any container empty..... definitely 5 star to the staff. Well, here's the "however" part - my bed had a crowded NYC subway train kind of body odor. Felt like a Karen but I still apologetically brought up the problem to the front desk staff, and she was very nice to help to ask the housekeeping to change my bedding, but the odor was still there after their busy working. Never had this kind of experience with any hotel; after digging up a bit, I found the odor was from the bed itself - the mattress was so ancient even fresh linen was not able to cover the smell. Another thing was even more bazaar - the 4th floor smelled like DDT; it was just in the news that a family of four died from being over exposed to insecticide in the hotel in Turkey. I guess all hotels spray something to prevent infestation of bugs, but the smell was really strong during my stay there. I was either brave or stupid not to change hotel. Thankfully I am still here and am able to write this review. Other small things show the outdated part of this hotel, ex. never get the right temperature for the shower, water went down the drain from the sink super slowly like it was partially clogged..... We definitely will go back to the Gardens, but will stay somewhere else.
