Nastiest Hotel for an airline?

SAW

I never had the pleasure of staying at the IronMountain 'resort', but KSAW double wide express was the worst. I could hear the guy 3 rooms down fighting thru the wall to the guy 4 rooms down to be quiet. Course the only people I ever saw stay there worked for Skyway, I mean Midwest Connect. The room finally heated up in the winter about checkout time....

Hey Impala boy, you ready to get off management's desk and move outta SYX?

I've stayed at the Wayfarer in Manchester before,it's not that bad. There is a new and old side. The new side had fire damage from a fire a couple years back, this 'wing' is all totally refurbished and looks brand new with nice views of a large pond out back.
USairways, delta, aca, to mention a few all stay there!
By far the worst i've stayed at is the Clarion at LGA. NEVER AGAIN!

 

[I.P. Freley]

Go Clarion GO!!

Heh heh heh...

Sounds like NEDude has found the only nice one in the land!!

Sounds like NEDude has found the only nice one in the land!!

Yeah, and as of next Monday we aren't going there anymore! Go figure. I'll gladly give up the hot meal in order to not have to deal with the AZO station personnel anymore.

 

[NEDude]

I will shed a tear when our last AZO flight departs. I was all about that buffet. But BeechSlapped is right, the AZO station personnel are the worst.

Hey BeechSlapped - Hats are cool.

I'm going with the Clarion at LGA. The one that use to be a parking garage, that's why the hallways are frequently slopped at a 30 degree angle. It was supposed to be a crackhouse in the early 80's, but I believe that's a legend. Rooms were absolute disaster with tinier bathrooms then the ones I had in Tokyo. They're like the mega small rooms you get at hotels in Manhattan, except you're in FR*CKING Queens.

As far as the staff at this hotel, well let's just say you will get every negative New York sterotype out of them, so it's best to laugh. Tried the beer at the 'bar' one night and found it to be totally skunked. Then told I still had to pay for it, which I laughed off. Only positive was that Spirit crews stayed their and alot of their FA's are hot, fake t!t South Beach types. Since nobody else is around, a f-ugly guy like myself actually had a shot.

I'll cast my vote for the Best Western Fortnighter in Portland, Or. It's been a couple of years since I last stayed there, but on my last night I had a trail of ants walking across my bed while I was trying to sleep.

Pretty gross. They were all trying to make it to the trash can. The hotel manager was a d!ck, as well. He gave me a lot of crap for wanting my room changed. We got the Ramada from then on. A big improvement.

fbo hotel

I dont know, although many of these sound bad it cant be worse the ole' "FBO Lounge Hotel". Nothing worse than trying to sleep on the couch of an FBO while some corporate driver watches CNNfN and complains about his portfolio.

Knights Inn- Arlington, TX

My vote goes for the Knights Inn out in Arlington, TX. Its where American Eagle puts up some of the newhire classes during ground school. The rooms smelled like mildew and were infested with bugs and crickets. There were several times that a bug would hop onto my book in my lap while I was studying. I switched rooms 3 times my first week then eventually quit switching once I saw it was a losing battle, with each room getting worse and worse! That was such a.....good...time....trying to sleep at night with crickets chirping inside your room, to the point you're up half the night trying to find them so you can kill them and get back to sleep!

Meanwhile, other newhire classes stayed at the Candlewood Suites just down the road.

Homecooking, Kangaroo Cowboy, I fully expect to hear the Clarion in LGA story here very soon...

IAH

Had to stay at the Quality INN at IAH.
When i got to the room it had dead bugs floating in a tub full of water. That place is the dumps.

Sleep Inn LIT

In order to get to the hotel you had to wait for the long term parking shuttle to pick you and all your passengers. Then drop all the passengers off at their cars in the long term parking lot before proceeding to the hotel. When you walked up to the front of the hotel you could see the yellow outside walls had a brown tint to them....because they are covered in spiders!! Like half dollar sized spiders! Two of our flight attendants were bitten by Brown Recluse spiders while sleeping there as well and had to be hospitalized. The company finally changed it when threatened with a lawsuit but not after a couple people opted to sleep in the plane instead of going to the hotel (no joke)......Down with Choice Hotels...they all suck!!!

I also have to vote for the Wafarer in MHT. I stayed there a couple weeks ago and when we arrived the parking lot was full of fire trucks. The pipes for the sprinkler system burst and flooded the lobby area. Also, there is no elevator and they put us on the 3rd floor. The heater could only keep the room around 60 degrees. Almost all of the tiles on the floor in the bathroom were cracked and had large pieces missing. The sink didn't drain. It is a nasty hotel.

On the bright side, I got to sit next to a hot USair flight attendant in the morning. (I didn't know they had any hot flight attendants)

P.S. my room key didn't work.

My vote go for the Holiday Inn in CLE.
Plus Ohio just sucks to begin with.

 

[OldManPilot]

Airport Inn in Dayton, OH its the "Bates Motel"

 

[ex208driver]

Lake Charles had the Chateua Charles and recently till they changed it was the Holiday Inn, about a 30 min van ride to a crappy hotel.

 

[Saabslime]

How about the "Best" Western in MKG. Two hotel fires in about as many weeks because of the old heaters in the rooms. Haven't been there in a while but I'm sure we'll still stay there if the company saves a couple of cents per night. Practically takes an act of congress to get a hotel change around here........

 

[LJDRVR]

The Best Western in Monterey, California.

The FO I was flying with had a sea of insects on his carpet. When he complained to management, they accused him of bringing the bugs WITH HIM. Scumbags. On the positive side, the aquarium downtown is awesome. Way better than others I've seen.

 

[lowlycfi]

When I first started flying for SWA we stayed at the Super 8 in LAS. I had it every week my first month of flying. They allowed pets in the rooms and every week I had flea bites all over me the next morning. Only good thing about it was all the hookers that roamed the hallways and 50 cent beer next door at Ellis Island, which was about all I could afford at the time.

 

[RegionalFA]

The Dayton Airport Inn was really nasty.

also, the hotel we used to stay at in Hagerstown, MD was pretty gross... the only hotel that I've been in and have actually SEEN a rat.
