The Anniversary Inn - Fifth South

The themed room was fun

The furnishings are old and there was no hot water in the morning to take a shower. I talked to the manager and was told that is an on going problem when they are fully booked. She said the owner is refusing to fix the issue.

The room was dark and gloomy. It was advertised as "A Room With a View". The view was mediocre at best - it might have been more appealing had the windows actually been clean enough to see the view. The breakfast would have been lovely, but the croissant was tough, the cinnamon roll was dry and hard, the orange juice was bitter, and the hot chocolate was tepid at best. Although the room was clean, the lighting made it feel dark and dingy. The bed was lovely to look at, but a nightmare to sleep on. It was the worst and hardest bed we've ever tried to sleep on. This stay was a gift from our daughter for my husband's birthday. She bought us a gift card at considerable expense, since earlier this year, my husband was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer and then one month later was laid off from his job of 18 years. We reserved the room with our visa, fully expecting to pay for our stay with the gift card. When we arrived we were asked if we wanted to leave the room-charge on our credit card. We replied that, no, we wanted to pay with our gift card. We were told that since this was a "Black Friday" room rate, gift cards were not accepted. We explained that the gift card was already paid-for, so there was NO ADDITIONAL discount. Anniversary Inn would be paid whether from our credit card or a gift card, they would still get their money. We were informed that this issue had been brought up to management AND to the owners - only to have the highest Anniversary Inn authority rigidly enforce this ridiculous policy!!! We would NEVER have booked this stay if we had known our gift card would not be honored. Not honoring a gift certificate to your own establishment is disingenuous at best and fraudulent at worst. I have never seen such poor management and business practices!!! We are now stuck with a charge on our credit card that due to having NO INCOME, we cannot pay. This would not have been the case if Anniversary Inn had honored the gift certificate purchased in good faith. We will NEVER patronize this establishment again and will be as vocal as possible to discourage others from doing so.

The AC could only go to 70. We didn't know that when we turned the fireplace on for less than 5 minutes. It was so hot. You can't open the windows. It was in November. It's not hot out. The ac started being INSANELY loud from 430am. (Woke us up and continued to make this very loud noise for about 30 second intervals every 3-4 minutes Even after powering it off! We ordered their artichoke dip which was delicious. But we didn't know you had to purchase the bread separately. So we ate our artichoke dip on top of our pizza. It wasn't a great combo.

Exceptional staff, friendly and loved the breakfast delivered to room each morning. Rooms are quirky and fun

We had the room with the cowboy theme. Loved it so much. The spa tub in the room was great too. Very friendly staff and great breakfast options which were served to our room. Beautiful hotel.

The staff is amazing!!!

I loved this stay! If we didn't live in a different state, it would be a lot of fun to stay in different themed rooms here and there. We booked the Venice room which was a lot of fun! The shower was great and the room was beautifully decorated. There was music playing when we entered the room. The breakfast the following morning was delicious. I highly recommend the experience of this inn!

Bath and shower hot and cold faucets did not work well. TV remotes hard to manage. Romeo and Juliet cd was terrible.

Love the place the people.
