We prepaid for the room and were told we could not get our money back even if we agreed to pay for one night. The place was really run down and not what we expected after looking at pictures on the internet. Don't be fooled by the good reviews left by some people. They are not true! more

I am very sorry you had a bad experience with the motel. I was sure that when i talked to you and got you a reservation at out sister motel you were happy. The only reason i could not refund the money is a buy now rate is a lower rate and you have to buy when you book and...

We booked this for a one night stay and I almost left. The place is old and out dated. It was clean, but thats about all I can say about it. Not enough towels for the 4 of us. When we went to get more no one was in the office @ 10 pm. Staff was all but non existant. more

The Veranda was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in my whole life and that includes hotels around the world. It smelled, locks would not lock, the grounds were not maintained. I would not take my shoes off because the floor was so filthy. I asked about wiFi and was told to go use the Days Inn WiFi.!! I... more

We checked in, the room looked clean but after cooler leaked all over entryway and I wiped it up the towel was so dirty I had to leave it behind. Guess what? They charged me $80. on my credit card for my own towel. They said the towel was so dirty it could not be washed, my point exactly! Although... more

This is the worst place I have ever stayed in. Got there and the keys would not open the door, after several trips to front office we finally got inside a smelly musty room. Left for a friends 50th birthday celebration and left our luggage in the room. Got back at 11.30pm and once again the keys would not work... more

Nice rooms all with french doors leading out to a courtyard with swimming pool, loungers, tables and chairs. We had breakfast out there. Room well stocked and included microwave and disposable dishes, plates, cutlery etc. Good value too. Would definitely return when next in the area. more

Looking at The Veranda Inn website, it looks to be a very charming and clean hotel. NOT!! This hotel was so far from that. As I opened the door to the room it smelled so bad of a musty odor. The carpet was gross and sticky, the bathroom was dirty, the walls were cracked and the paint was chipping off.... more

Not so great

This was an AWFUL experience. My room was FILTHY. The bed sheets were grimy and had hair on them. The bathroom floor and shower had hair everywhere. It was so dirty that I wouldn't even take a shower nor walk on the carpet without shoes on. When I spoke with the front desk to see if I could get clean... more
