アドミラル フィッツロイ イン(Admiral Fitzroy Inn)

JUST SAY NO: It was damp, dated, and smelled like mildew. My cousin and Aunt had to do breathing treatments while there. My sister paid extra to stay on the fourth floor. It looked and felt like someone put a trailer on top of the hotel. Their bathroom was NOT clean. We had no service whatsoever during our stay and had to go get our own toilet paper. They left envelopes in our room to tip the maids which we never saw. Even the lobby had a trash can in the middle of it to catch leaking water coming from the ceiling. Location was good and it had a parking lot...sum total of all positives.

There's a reason this inn doesn't offer refunds, and trust me, we tried to get our money back and leave immediately. I've never written a bad review but I feel the need to warn others about this place because it bears little resemblance to the charming pictures on the website. We found it shabby and dated (many of the walls are sponge-painted) but worst of all, all three of our rooms smelled dank and musty. We primarily wanted to leave because my elderly aunt has COPD and we were fearful for her health. My cousin and I stayed in room 19 on the 4th floor, for which we paid extra, and we decided that the cheap, mismatched furniture and clumsily hung curtains reminded us of a trailer park or a bad mom and pop motel - especially the bathroom, which was a disgrace. It was small and cramped, there was mildew in the bathtub/shower and we had to bend our knees to look in the mirror. There are cheap plastic "laundry hampers" aka garbage cans outside each room for soiled towels as well as one in the lobby to catch water dripping from the ceiling. If we had paid $50 a night, I'd expect all of the above, but for almost $500 a night? No thanks. On a positive note, the location is great, the breakfast was nice and they do have a parking lot.

It was a nice room. The bed was comfy. The room was clean. Front desk was pleasant. Asked for extra towels and they brought it up in a basket. The morning continental breakfast was great! The food was homemade and not the hotel variety of food you get. They locked the doors after 8 pm and you have to use a key to get in. My husband liked that feature. Would stay at this place again.

This Inn was priced better than some nearby and worked for our travel dates. It was clean but it needs help. The decor is worn and the furniture in the main living room downstairs is a mix of things that just don't mesh like a modern ottoman with plastic crystal legs ( think pottery barn teen) over a jute rug of odd proportion over 90's carpet needing rplaced and a few pieces of furniture that don't match all against the walls nit in any cozy seating postion. I sat there one night thinking how easy it would be to scour Facbook marketplace or a thrift shop and pull it together a cheap warm, classy refresh. Our room- 9 has worn furniture, scuffed baseboards, carpet that's way past its functional life a TV that the speaker rattled ( it was old), peeling cheap leather or pleather chairs and just needs a refresh. Kits to cover peeling are like 30.00 or better yet, toss them,The bathroom was fine just needed caulking behind the sink. It is old, I get it. I live in a historic home, sell them and serve on a historical preservation commission in NC. I took a call in the hallway and noticed the rotten window frame I could have poked my fingers through to the outside. They need to take fast action on these frames on the back. They are all in terrible shape. For a business if they just would spend 1500.00 a room installing new carpet, paint the baseboards and refresh curtains etc, they could get it back in the rate easily in no time- like 12 months max. The place is cool and the breakfast was great even though some complain online, we found it perfect. The coffee was very good and the room was CLEAN, just dated and not in a historical way. I am not picking on them to pick, someone needs to revamp it and it will shine. HIre someone and it will pay you back tenfold. Yes, I'd come back and pay more for an updated version of this charming Inn.

Property was in a great location and the staff was great. Breakfast was a nice surprise

Friendly staff very helpful. Hotel is in great location for walking to all shops and restaurants.

Nothing the place was disgusting. It smelled like mold and the furniture in the room was broken.

Lovely Inn. The staff is just wonderful and patient with kids. The rooms are beautiful and super clean. The beds are amazing! The Inn is in walking distance to a great downtown. There is a lot to do just steps away.

I have no idea how this place gets a high rating it’s the worst place I have stopped in a very very long time. When we arrived we had a very evasive housekeeper greet us . The rugs in the hallway were frayed, the door to our room felt like it was made from plywood, the room was very spacious but so old it felt ancient, there was a cubby hole as you walked in which had been turned into a place for a fridge and tea making facility which was a good use of a very old cupboard but the rest of the furnishings were by no means plush. The bed was comfy but the pillows were shocking, all lumpy. The bathroom wasn’t especially clean in fact the sealant on the floor around the bath was really dirty and cracked tiles around the bath, the towels however were the nicest on our trip very fluffy and thick. The air con was good, not noisy at all. The breakfast was dire, especially for someone with allergies. No gluten free options and nobody to ask. Just fresh fruit and a very cold boiled egg and little bit of ham. Not our idea of a 4.5 star rated hotel on Trip advisor. Not recommend
