- RARon AdamsNov 3, 20254.0Listen, I wanna be very clear with everyone I didn't stay at this hotel at all. I was in a Uhaul headed to Acton to help a friend move Will never everrr do that again, lol) but as soon as I get to Uhaul my phone dies, I always bring a wire with me to my portable charger and of course I didnt have one. And guess what?? The UHAUL i had didn't have GPS!!! So when I left there I was stuck! Im new to the area and had no ideal how to even get back home. I pulled into this hotel, was very nervous because if you dont have a reservation some hotels stuff wont help you! Trust me ive seen it, worked in hospitality for a very long time. But these two front desk employees couldn't have been nicer, so wonderful. There was training going on to and I felt so bad to stop that, but they were great to help me and didnt make me feel stupid, ev3n though I was, leaving the house on 10%. I really do hope this hotel knows who they have.
