Stratford Motor Inn East Ellijay

Had no breakfast

There was a sour smell in the room

Convenient to apple fest

Location

The room was dirty and needed serious updating. We had electric outlets with no covers. Lamps were rusty and dirty. The sinks were slow draining. When I first opened the door I was smacked in the face with overwhelming cigarette smoke smell. I had requested a non smoking room. I had to leave the door open to let it air out. Even the smoke alarm was yellowed from smoking. We had to unplug the phone because it wouldn’t quit buzzing. It was just not a nice room for the money I was charged.

Check in time is at 3 pm but my room was not ready till almost 5 pm The outside of the building needs a lot of work and cleaning there were cigarette butts everywhere and the cigarette holders were over full. Was not sure if the sheets on bed were changed. There was dust in the room and black hairs on the bathroom floor.bathrooms are very small .

Location was ok to the apple festival

The bathroom was not clean—random hairs around toilet, on the floor. The bathroom door and walls were sticky. Beds were fine, a little tired, but at least clean

It had availability. Bed sheets luckily clean.

Rooms are filthy. Carpet is absolutely nasty. Dead bugs of various assortments in corners. Bed comforters and blankets have holes and nasty stains. Linens are stained.

Bed was extremely uncomfortable, shower was dirty, entire motel needs to be updated. Parking lot is broken up.

This is the worst dump I have ever stayed in. I was unexpectedly horrified by the check in experience and the room. Checking in there was no welcome, there was a hard plastic barrier and when the "person" came and he said all he needed was for me to sign the credit card form which he slid under a tiny slot at the bottom of the barrier, and then gave me the key. You'd think we were in a high crime area but not at all, this is a small farm and orchard town in the north Georgia Mountains! Then the room. An age of filth baked in. No drain stoppers in sink or tub. Dirt all over the light switches, no overhead lights, old tv with a remote that didnt change channels. The onside of the door was unbelievably filthy. I wouldn't put my belongings on the floor, I'm glad I brought my slippers because I'd never put my feet on the floors. The bathroom was about 4 X 5 if that, toilet and tub in there. The bed was miserable, the pillows thin flat boards. I was stuck because I was there for a 2 night wedding event. Everything else was sold out because of apple and pumpkin fall festivals. The first morning after terrible sleep I realized I'd have to leave and forfeit the 2nd night I'd already paid for. So I left in disgust. Not a chance I'd stay. GROSS EXPERIENCE I've had difficulty reaching hotels.com because they should remove this property ftim their site, it is far below their reputation. I need a direct way to contact them.
