Entry was a bit of a challenge. I did not get the information needed to get in until after I was there and it was freezing. The directions in the app were not explicit bough about the process or where and how you filled out this pre evaluation… there were multiple links you had to follow to find the code to get in. I had no service for some reason, once up stairs in my room I couldn’t find the WiFi access and I had to go back outside to find WiFi at the 7 eleven in order to follow a link to find the password. The next morning I texted what time and where breakfast was and I was told to follow the link. Pretty unproductive considering they texted back.
This was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had with a B&B. When I called for location instructions, the staff couldn’t have cared less. Their only response was, “Just put the address,” with zero effort to actually help. To make matters worse, I had a work van and had to park on public streets because they don’t offer proper parking. I formally requested a refund for the inconvenience since I couldn’t leave my work materials unattended, and they rudely refused without any consideration.
This place is a joke—they only care about taking your money and provide absolutely no customer service. If you’re looking for a place to stay that values guests, stay FAR away from Dorothy’s. They don’t deserve anyone’s business.
