Hotels Near S Cleveland Park Dr in Spartanburg

This used to be the nicest hotel in town and now it is barely what I would consider a 3 star hotel on a good day. The check-in experience was painfully slow and lacked any sense of welcoming. Upon arriving in our room, we discovered only 1 set of towels, no bath mat or hand soap, only 3 pillows on one bed while the other had 4 and only 1 pack of coffee and it was decaf. I tried calling AYS 3 times letting it ring for 20 times each and then finally resorted to using my cell to call the hotel and I finally got an answer. In addition to asking for additional towels and coffee, I asked for a luggage rack as there was not one in the room to which the agent (same one that checked me in) said they were located at the front door. When I explained what a luggage rack was (vs a luggage cart), he said the hotel did not have them. The room itself is very tired and in need of refurbishing as well as repair. Torn wallpaper, broken shade pulls, breaks in the tile are just a few issues. Dusting also sees to be non-existing as well as there was at least an inch on the air and vent returns. Prior to arrival, I received an email from the front office manager indicating “we are in the process of returning to normal operations”. Seriously other hotels are back to operating as they were pre-Covid, not sure you can keep milking the Covid excuse for what truly appears to be lack of care. Mr. Marriott Sr would turn in his grave if he set foot in this hotel. Sadly since Mr. Marriott Jr stepped down and the company acquired Starwood, the quality of product and service at Marriott worldwide has been on a downward spiral and this hotel is leading the way.

A good hotel in Spartanburg. A few observations: -- the hotel is a premium hotel and you will pay accordingly. We had a good room and no complaints. But, if you are not picky, there is better value to be had in the Greenville, Spartanburg area. -- the hotel is very elegant with nice artwork and furnishings. -- breakfast was not included, but it was a good setup that offered an upscale selection. -- the lobby is super noisy at night (there was a loud bar and it is a massive open space). Not a big problem, but travelers with young children or those looking for peace and calm should be aware of it. -- the pool looks huge in the Marriott website photo. It's not, lol... trick photography... -- parking was plentiful and fine. Overall, we were happy. I might price shop and stay somewhere else next time I am in town.

Great location

I needed a room for a night and Hometowne Studios was perfect for my budget. The people in the front office, Carson and Jessica, were very professional and and nice. The room I stayed in was way better than I was expecting. Clean, comfortable bed and many channels to watch on tv. Since it is an extended stay, it had a small kitchen area with a sink, stove, refrigerator and microwave. Everything was clean and in working order. The bathroom was practically spotless. I wasn’t afraid to to take a hot, relaxing bath. They don’t have any smoking rooms which is fine. One of the times I was outside smoking I talked to the lady staying in the room next to me who was also outside smoking. She apparently just had an issue with her sink. She said within 10 minutes of calling the office it was fixed. Sounds like they are on top of things there. I will never stay in another hotel in Spartanburg again.
