The Mallard Hotel was bad , I had a room booked for over a week on the first floor , when I arrived the room I booked was occupied , no one works their on site , everything is operated by someone in a another country by phone . I got another room . The TV had no remote , I called them back and they told me to go to another room and get the TV remote out of that room , could not get in the room with the code he gave me on the phone , so I went back to the room he gave me and took a shower , when I walk back to the bed , my feet were black on the bottom from the dirty floor . I used a wash cloth to wash the bottom of my feet , before I got in the bed which was like a bag of rags , I could write a book on the Mallard Hotel which would be a horrow story , This stay was like a bad dream .
If you have heard the old saying "don't judge a book by its cover" this place is what it refers to. From the outside you would almost think the property is shut down, however when you open your room it is beautiful. And checking in couldnât be easier, it is like a VRBO.
Our room look decent when we checked in our room, but then we found lots of hair in the sheets. Our shower looked a little dirty. There was meldew on the shower curtain and hair on the towels and in the drain. Theres no front desk, so you cant report anything or request for new sheets.
The outdoor firepit was a nice place to hangout before we went to bed.
No TV working. Went and bought some new batteries and also tried remote from friends room with no luck. First room didnât work. Bathroom and all floors turned everyoneâs socks black in 2nd room. Toilet rocking. Tub dirty. Didnât expect a lot, but this wasnât near what it could have been with a little maintenance.
I liked the appearance of the remodel. It was all very comfortable. The bed was excellent, the shower was more than excellent and overall it was a very good 3 day stay while I visited family. I will be back
I did not like the check-in without a face. I am very tech challenged and was very uncomfortable trying to check in by phone, especially after our call got cut off. Thankfully the lady on the other end called right back and worked with me, taking me to 3 different rooms before getting me settled. Neither the lock boxes nor the touch pads would work for me but the 3rd touch pad did did. O was beginning to feel a little distraught that maybe I would not be able to check in and then what? She was very kind and patient with an old man who does not have a smart phone. I did not want to give such a low eval on my check-in but I have to be honest. I would have given the lowest mark but the kind lady brought it up.
The room was very nice. the room was very clean. However there were no creamers in the room. Do not fall for the free breakfast. It was a joke. Few honeybuns few chocolate muffins and no coffee cups or creamer again. Also You have to pay for the ice so make sure you bring in cash with you and coins.
Very good location for a one night stay on a longer drive. The hotel itself has been updated and the rooms are nice generally. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the building has a beautiful view of the mountains. Will definitely stay here again if we are in the area.
