    Salter Path Inn rented us a hotel room without a working shower. Places of lodging are required by law to have a working bath or shower in rented hotel rooms. When we were able to notify management that our room did not have a functioning shower it was 10:30 am on August 22nd. Checkout is 11 am. We were not offered a late checkout or given a key to a room with a working shower. Management was rude, hostile, & incredulous at the idea of offering us a partial or full refund, telling us they did not care if they lost our business or any other future business. These people are liars. Claiming we refused another room. They´re dishonest. We wanted to stay at the Salter Path Inn for a long time. We drove specifically to stay here from the mountains. We were previously planning to come back and stay for at least a week. Drove all day and checked in at about 5pm and went to dinner. After dinner, we went to the beach. At 11:15 pm back in the hotel room, sandy and exhausted, we found the shower did not function at all. Went to sleep, since it was already late. Rainstorm outside. In the morning, went to the office at 9 am. Waited before 9 for somebody to be there & before we left. Locked. Went back at 10 am / 10:15. Curtains were open. Door locked. No answer. See person at the office at 10:30 (check-out time is 11 am). We tell them the shower has not functioned. Person says “they just fixed it before you came”. We’re told we could shower in another room. (Fair enough - but inconvenient.) Person we are talking to says she’ll ask person #2 what to do/compensation etc. or what a good solution would be. New person comes into the room and also checks shower, confirming it does not work. She tells my friend “we should have called them last night”. (I don’t know how they expect us to call “them” at that hour during a thunderstorm w/nobody in the office). I ask - are they really going to charge us for the night for a room with no shower(?) Management blames us for their errors. Awful

    I made a reservation and within 12 hrs I had to cancel due to family member getting ill. We thought it might be Covid (NC has a large number of cases), so we headed home. I called and told them I needed to cancel without reason. ******* - the manager, said she would follow up with the owner and get back to me. Its been several weeks now and no one has called me. I have called them everyday to try and understand why they not only would not give me my money back but also charged my credit card the FULL price. When I asked about that, **** said she would take it up with the owner and get back with me. I contacted *********, they were worthless. It seems as though they wanted us to show up sick and infect anyone we came in contact with. I explained that and **** said, I needed to bring in my POSITIVE test results in order to get my refund. Not a good way to do business. No refund, no follow up call, nothing. Bad management from my judgement, I have called to communicate and seems like they have no interest in keeping customers. I looked up the days we canceled and seems as though they were able to fill every room during those times... when I confronted them about it, they said no they were not full and I was not getting a refund. Not happy, not good business and warn anyone making a reservation to think twice.
