Could you sleep here? |
The man behind the desk told me he was from India. The price was right, so we decided to stay at this motel. My friend and my wife and I rented two adjacent rooms. Our room was cold -- the heater only put out low heat. During the night, the heater's fan became louder and louder. I went outside to sleep in the car. The heater was audible even in the car in the parking lot! In the morning I asked for a discount... I suggested 50%. When my credit card statement arrived, my discount was only $9.06. I disputed the change with the credit card company, CHASE. My friend, who had the adjacent room had a problem with the toilet. It auto-flushed itself constantly throughout the night. He could not sleep either; he had to take a sleeping pill in order to make it through the night. TV reception was crap; cleanliness was marginal -- walls dirty (see picture).
I disputed the charge with my credit card company. I received a CREDIT form the credit card company: |
The
loud, weak, heater is in back. The blow-drier didn't
work either; |

I received a CREDIT form the
credit card company: These Indian people still owe me about ten dollars. Am I going to let them get away with cheating me for this amount? I called the credit card company. CHASE. I spoke with Chris, who transferred me to Robin, who transferred me to Paul who transferred me to Shuntica. Shuntica told me to send a letter to explain the whole problem again. So, I'll play this game. |

3/31/2008 Post Office Box 15299 Wilmington, DE 19850-5299 Att: DISPUTE Dear Kay, Thank you, Chris, who transferred me to Robin, who transferred me to Paul who ungraciously transferred me to Shuntica. The thing why you denied my full claim is incorrect: that I "did not check out of the hotel when the problem occurred." I did do that!! Thank you kindly in advance and please cause a full refund to be applied ASAP. RE: [CUSTl776.doc 17083730.PXO] |
I disputed again. I talked to Chris, Robin & Paul, the mostly unresponsive answering people at CHASE ... this time it seems more difficult, as Chase bank tries to weasel out of recovering the missing the dollars.
About a month later Chase refunded tomme the difference between what Kingman Inn refunded and my cost.

Read reviews -2: A DUMP -- By A Yahoo! Contributer, 02-21-08... A place
to stay away from:
I have stayed in this property twice in 2005 and was happy with the
accommodations. This time I was with my wife and looked forward to staying at
the same place. Based on my past experience and my initial look-see, we checked
into the motel. Lo and behold when we turned on the lights, (the ones that
worked) the worst nightmare of a place to stay during our trip to and from
Houston was discovered.
The carpet in the room was saturated with dirt in addition to the last painters boot tracks thru-out the room. The condition of this room was not only [due to] maintenance but a lack of cleanliness, ownership and care of a person in charge that deserves the write up that your website provides. We selected to stay instead of just leaving without a request for any refunds because we were absolutely exhausted from a long drive from El Paso, TX. [...]
I will contact AAA inspected by AAA and the Health
