Hearthstone Inn

Nostalgic !
Firm Mattress! Very Nice! Very Comfortable! My eBay Bride and I got a very solid sleep!
Quiet
We slept well and though the place was at Full Capacity we never heard anyone (I found out in the parking lot the next day their were two very young children in the next room! We heard No One!!!
Keys are now a «Tap Card» (Blank, White on both sides [no (visible) magnetic strip])… I like!
Makings of a «Slasher» or Abduction Film Set Décor: :
Artwork
Wallpaper
Comforters
Bathroom (small enough only to change your mind)
And Location (0ut in the Middle of Farm Country) I did NOT say in the middle of nowhere (just pretty close)!
All had that look you would expect in a place like this that says «it’s as insincere as Jonatan Davis singing «Word Up»
Sunrise Bonus (one Morning) The rest of the time reminded me of Alfred Hitchcock film «The Birds»…

The hotel is dated and needs improvements! The first thing they should spend money on is the mattresses! I woke up with spring marks all over my body! THE WORST mattress you will ever try to sleep on!
My $ 68 rate was the only rate they offered! No weekly special rates exist here.
The rooms come with old school keys and doors that lock automatically when it closes — PERIOD! (I was locked out several times during our stay).
Let’s see… The room came with a microwave and small fridge that moaned and groaned all night long.
Our shower had a small hole in the «one piece plastic insert» which I’m sure is causing mold to grow or water damage below! The light switch did not work in our room and we stumbled in the dark to find a light every night we stayed!
My non smoking room must have had pillows from a smoking room because all night long it smelled like someone put out a ciggerette right next to me!
The internet was decent! The TV stations were plenty! (Yet the TV itself survived from the 80’s — made by Sanyo!!)
The bathroom… Continued… The shower exhaust fan sounded like a skill saw! And the older wallpaper was still left on the wall behind the toilet for everyone to see! (Lazy contractors). ½ of the ceramic tiles on the floor were cracked in two! The toilet ran for a long time after flushing it… And I’m sure it was not a low flow model!
Expect to hear everything your neighbors say too! I said «god bless you» after hearing my neighbor sneeze and she responded to me «thank you»… Very thin walls– no insulation, I’m sure!!!
I went to the front desk earlier and all I could hear were children screaming and crying In the background, so, I believe a daycare side business is taking place.
They offer small muffins and coffee in the morning too!
You don’t have many choices when staying in Lafayette… I hope our review will promote changes at this facility because change needs to happen!!! This review was written in March, 2014
