Travel Inn

This is what happens when you make a last minute reservation from a cell phone screen without checking reviews because you don't have your glasses on... You get an airless motel room in a dodgy area that hasn't been updated in decades. If it had been $45 a night, I might have understood, but for $88 a night I would have appreciated it if they had cleaned out the coffee maker from the last guest and if the hair dryer had actually worked and..... Well, you get the picture.

My wife and I wanted to get away for a day or so and go to the coast. She used Booking.com to get a room at this motel. On booking.com it states pets are allowed by request. My wife saw pets are allowed and kept on reading. When she got to the motel to check in the owner "yelled" at her for bringing a dog and told her that they didn't accept pets, (the dog was still in the car at this point) I could hear him yelling from my car with the windows up and the door to the motel closed. Why yell, why be disrespectful to someone over something that hasn't taken place? This man should not be dealing with the public in any way, shape or fashion. To top it off the place is filthy, the furniture is not usable and the floors need to be ripped out. I wouldn't have let my dog sleep on the floor in that place. In all honesty if we hadn't found another place to stay at the last minute sleeping in the car would have been better than the treatment we got from The Travel Inn Fortuna. Never, ever for any reason stop at this garbage dump where the dirty floors and chairs are cleaner than the owners language. This ruined our trip, we cut it short and came home early.

Postives: Clean bed, clean shower/bathroom, free wifi, fairly quiet location Negatives: Every single piece of furniture in the rooms should really be taken to the dumpster - can't even sell this junk on CL. Dirty carpet. Overall - I've been to worse places but this is not a place I'd use for anything other than a late arrival and early departure the next morning. No fitness center or swimming pool (not included in negatives/positives because I, personally, don't care if they have this or not).
