Reviews for Best Whittier Inn
Review 1:There were no choice of non-smoking room when I booked it, so I just choose one that indicated "double room". It ended up being a smoking room which smelled awful for us non smokers. When I asked if we can change room the people at front desk was really rude and said basically we get what we booked.
Review 2:The motel is close to two big shopping place
Review 3:The cable did not work right and at 1st they gave me the worng room and the house keeping came in at 9 without knocking when check out is 11 there was no free breakfast like it stated it would
Review 4:The size of room and the setting in the room
Review 5:I didn't like the manager him self he's too slow, he's pretty mean he can't speak correctly, doesn't look like he cares about his customers, price is too high.
Review 6:The room privacy and everything else is fine in the room
Review 7:The Indian man working the office. He was very rude, unfriendly, unhelpful and slow. I come here alot and this was my first time meeting him, I hope I don't have to deal with him again.
Review 8:I love the location, price and cleanliness of the room.
Review 9:The place was over priced for what we got. The toilet didn't flush and we were moved to a different room which was a little better. The staff was pleasant.
Review 10:The room was not very clean and there was a open condom in the bed along with empty pack of cigarettes on the floor next time stay at the vagabond inn across the street.
Review 11:The day front desk staff were not to friendly the lady was rude n insulted my son and the pool was closed
Review 12:The cleaning staff was very nice but need to clean better under beds
Review 13:The beds were very uncomfortable and made noises whenever I moved. Sticky floors and holes in walls. Not enough channels on tv, and the picture was fuzzy. WiFi did not work in the room.
Review 14:The shower was newly done and nice water pressure. Not too far from amusement parks.
Review 15:Shower wasn't operable, unable to take bath as no stopper was provided. Property unclean, stairs had lots of cigarette butts. Someone's bra from prior stay left in bedside cabinet drawer. No deity clothes bag.
Review 16:A/c worked well.
Review 17:It started from the time I drove up. Broken furniture were thrown in areas of the grounds. The staff were very rude. The pool was not opened even though it looked fine. The loud activity that went on all night then early in the morning by management allowing their children to run by the rooms and yell. It was unbelievable. I read the reviews before I book but the reviews were not accurate. Do yourself a favor book any where else.
Review 18:I cannot honestly say anything nice about this place! Everything was the worst I have seen! The staff were very rude everything was filthy!
Review 19:Blood stains on our towels. Uncomfortable bed. Bathroom had holes in the walls, bathroom door kept scraping the floor when opening it. Ice bucket was dirty.
Review 20:The from desk lady with an Indian accent is so extremely rude and unwelcoming. The lady who checked me in the night before asked if I wanted a complimentary late check out and I said sure but the rude Indian lady first called me at 11:08 asking why I was not and I replied I was checking out at noon so then she called me back some 15 minutes later literally yelling that I had to be out because I checked in at 7pm...I informed her of my conversation with the lady last night but she didn't care and proceeded to yell at me and berate me for something I did not do and had to reason to not believe the employee from the night before. I left the room quickly after not feeling welcome and frankly being annoyed so I went and told her she was rude and didn't appreciate the way she yelled and me and she yelled and me some more so I just left. She is the worst! Also this hotel is very old and needs helps...there is paint missing on the walls - really large chunks, the sink knobs come off, the carpet is filthy so I never took off my shoes and thank God I had slippers, all the fixtures are old and the whole property is not kept up. Talk about thin walls!! Wow I had a porn going on all around me. I think the bar next door causes as lot of people to rent a room because after 2 am all I heard around me were couples and I heard very clearly with the crazy thin walls. Stay elsewhere this was not a pleasant experience. The vagabond across the street for the same amount is sooooo much better!!
Review 21:Nothing
Review 22:Nothing very upset never will I go nor will I recommend .my husband was away for 2weeks wanted to just spend time before he left again on that Monday for another Week The Whole Night Noise From Upstairs Requested a frig but that didn't work holes in the floor,rug dirty, no washing towels staff not friendly I Was Mortified. .my mothers day down the drain. .so unhappy
Review 23:Staff was snobby except the maitinance guy was really nice. My fridge was broken TV was fuzzy and the Internet was so slow dial up would've been faster
Review 24:I liked the town
Review 25:Next door guest too loud, I was having a hard time to sleep, they have the TV volume way loud. The bed matress is very hard.
Review 26:They have a refrigerator so I can have milk for my baby that was good.
Review 27:Both times I stayed there I didn't like the pool looking so prestine and guests weren't allow in area or go in pool due to not being in handicapp compliance I was told by the front desk
Review 28:I appreciated the peacefulness
Review 29:There is one man at the front desk that's very rude but the other front desk staff are very nice. The night clerk is exceptionally nice.
Review 30:Like the room n location
Review 31:We loved the convenient location and excellent service. Barbara was such a blessing to our family. We had a wonderful stay and look forward to our next visit.
Review 32:The only thing I wish they would have better fluffy pillows and higher toilets.
Review 33:I liked the help we got from the lady in the front desk. She told us we're we can eat good food and we were welcome to coffee if we wanted.
Review 34:I've came here more than a handful of times for convenience. Every time it's the same thing, rude customer service, dirty rooms , missing amenities, low water pressure in some rooms and even the water heater!
Review 35:I like the older white lady, she's always so sweet and welcoming.
Review 36:The person(s) in the room above me were not too quiet. But I have been in rooms where it was even more noisey.
Review 37:The room was nice. The bed was easy to sleep on. A great shower.
Review 38:Room was shabby with trash from last occupant still in the room. Bed was stiff, TVs outdated and dying, water pressure was nonexistent and rarely got above room temp. Graffiti on the furniture.
Review 39:Tucked away off the blvd.
Review 40:Not very many tv channels and never could get the wi-fi to hook up. The lights are motion lights which sucked because when just lying there I would have to move hand over sensor every 20 min
Review 41:I liked that it was clean, and the room was good sized. Many place in the area to get something to eat. 24 hrs The had a tavern right in the front of the place, was able to go okay pool, have a few drinks to relax after drive and was then able to walk back to my room.
Review 42:I had to go to a hotel while renovations were being down in my condo so I prepaid for 9 days and the clerk said if I leave early I'll be refunded. I left on the 8th day and when I went to get a refund the clerk screamed and yelled at me and refused to pay me the full amount saying they keep the tax! I paid in full the amount of the room and taxes before hand and the copy of the bill clearly stated they owe me the room price plus taxes I had paid in advance. So I say beware people they are rip off crooks and I will never stay there again. Besides the bed is hard as a rock and the carpet was filthy dirty.
Review 43:The housekeeping woman. She gave me anything I needed when I asked. She was a very nice woman.
Review 44:my weekend coming to an end lol:.
Review 45:Definetly recommend to all. Great hidden location close to malls bars restaurants. Staff friendly and accomodating. Will be backppnn
Review 46:The woman that worked the front counter was rude and I had to " kill her with kindness". We arrived an hour earlier than anticipated and just wanted to pay for the room we reserved and she told us we were an unpleasant distraction with poor timing.
Review 47:The room was please and clean. The bed was huge. I foud it comfortable and hot water pressure was awesome. A really great value for the money.
Review 48:The lady at the front office seemed a bit rude
Review 49:The motel was good there's not much of a breakfast but the price was pretty low around $60 and the area was nice so I'd probably go back if I really needed to
Review 50:Room smelled like smoke, bed was hard and uncomfortable, pool closed, breakfast was prepackaged rolls and coffee from home coffee pot. Room was hot with air conditioner on high. Left as soon as I could find another room. Refund didn't go through. Luckily I kept the receipt or would have lost money.
Review 51:Nice people.
Review 52:Older Indian couple working during the day can be difficult, WiFi isn't the best, super busy during weekends.
Review 53:The price was great, woman who works over night is awesome, quiet area, appearance of inside area and pool area is unique, bar at the location.
Review 54:The Sinister rude manager and his wife. They were so rude that I felt like I was a foreigner lost in their country of origin. The Manager a Elder guy of East Indian descent treated me and other friend really nasty. The house keeping staff doesn't speak any English, they just look at u when you ask them a question and stare at you like you're crazy. The carpet in the room was cut out in one section of the room and the bathroom had a funky odor. Needless to say the swimming pool is not up to code. This hotel in itself is fairly decent it just need a new owner and management because right now the present ones stinks. They need a crash course in Hotel Management, Etiquette and Hospitality. I will never go back to this hotel if it's the last one in Whittier.
Review 55:Nothing, absolutely nothing...
Review 56:I did not like the fact of the miscommunication with the cleaning staff they refuse to speak english and if you say anything they go back and speak In there language they did not leave towels in the bathroom and touch peoples things without asking permission and the new management staff is horrible when I confronted him about where our stuff was in are room they claim we were checking out which we were not they had all are stuff in the cleaning room thrown in a big brown box yelling at me that check out was at 11am and that we should take all our stuff and did not seem to want the house keeper to take our stuff upstairs as well as the pool still being closed not up to regulations as well as the sheets need I say more please do not come here unless its for night and need I mention the stale pastry and coffee from the ninety nine cent store
Review 57:One of the two beds were unmade when I got into the room, normally I wouldn't care though this time I was being instructed on my mistake for using the second one even though I didn't. Management seemed to lack proper English and was very hard to understand. And I was not instructed on the proper time I had to leave the room, that I could understand at least. While leaving, because I had overstayed due to lack of knowledge, I was told to just be quite and get out. Because the cleaning lady was there when I was trying to ask a question. Anything not mentioned in the "What did you like?" section. I will not stay there again nor will I recommend it to any friends or coworkers I know.
Review 58:The comfort of the bed.
Review 59:The internet connection was very slow and it was allowed only to one person in the room to access the internet and any other person will cost 5 dollar while it is written that it is free WiFi.
Review 60:The "free" wifi was only free for one person, the staff wasn't very helpful, the beds were cardboard hard, the room also smelt weird, the pool wasn't open & the TV had only a few channels.
Review 61:Guy in front is rude and doesn't try to communicate properly givin a language barrier. Tagging on the mirror and room looked as if it hasn't been cleaned in days, with dirt on the walls and ledges... I had a non smoking room and there were cig butts on the tv stand ( I'm 6' tall so they may have missed it )...but they made the bed...
Review 62:For a nights stay it wasn't too bad.
