Good stay except for the bathroom

Reviewed By Mendi B

The hotel was nice and the desk staff was very friendly. We only stayed one night. The room was large with a living area and a big bedroom. I liked the fridge and microwave too. The breakfast was fine. Waffles, eggs, sausage and the regular stuff like toast, yogurt, cereal. My only complaint was the bathroom. There was curly hair under the sink and on the tile in the shower and there was a used washcloth still across the shower curtain bar. I just didn’t feel like the bathroom was cleaned very well. That was disappointing but overall it was a good stay and I would stay there again.

The Willcox

The award-winning, historic Willcox Hotel cultivates a sophisticated, yet informal glamour amidst America's storied thoroughbred country. Cloud soft beds, an intimate Salon & Spa and one of the South's Best Restaurants - All in a setting of Easy Going Elegance.

Our Favorite Southern Hotel

Reviewed By SierraMadretravelers

The Willcox provides a warm, yet elegant Southern experience. This was my third time here and I can’t imagine staying elsewhere. The wood paneled grand lounge with two fireplaces is so inviting and comfortable that one could stay for hours, reading, talking, or enjoying food or beverages. Cocktails are excellent. Live music is played on Thursdays and another night. We stayed in the lovely second floor Churchill suite. We enjoyed its well appointed period authentic rooms and its tree-shaded balcony at the quieter east end of the hotel. We felt like we were sleeping on clouds, the bed and linens were so comfortable. Staff is friendly, courteous, and has a “Can do” approach to any challenges. Other hotels may be updated in a contemporary style, but we sought the special experience that we have only found at The Willcox. We can’t wait to return.

Unethical business practice

Hard to believe this place is allowed to listed as a hotel

Reviewed By jaywO8871YE

Place had the look of a crack house. Rooms smelled, beds were broken, lights didn't work, holes in shower. Place was a disaster and we left after checking in. Found another place to stay. I would avoid it at all cost. Had a guy in a ski mask come up to us and we jumped in our car to avoid any problems. Front desk said they couldn't do anything for us as it was booked thru someone other than them

Carelessly DANGEROUS and disappointing!

Reviewed By kimberleyl913

Carriage House Inn -Aiken, SC I booked a room in the "main" house/part of Aikens's The Carriage House Inn, 2 months prior to my stay. 2 days before, I realized work would prevent me from arriving on Friday, as I had planned, so I called AND sent an email, requesting my room be saved. The person who checked me in was also the person who responded to my email, and the recipient of my phone call. Upon arrival, there was some confusion about my room, but eventually my key was given to me, and I proceeded to my room. Imagine my shock/surprise/fear/embarrassment when I opened my door to find a man (who was not an employee) on the other side of the door - IN MY ROOM TO WHICH I HAD JUST BEEN GIVEN A SET OF KEYS! It turns out - we happened to have the same last name; 2 completely different reservations (no relation) and when I checked in, they decided to put me in the same room as this man!!! Fortunately, this happened at 4PM on a Saturday afternoon in the Spring - so there were people around, plenty of daylight, etc. It could have been a very different scenario had I arrived, let's say, at 9PM...or, what if I was the 1st one to check in, and they'd given this man (with the same last name as mine) keys to MY room, w/o me knowing it? I went back downstairs, explained the situation, and was told there were no more rooms in the "nice" part of the hotel, so I was given a room in the 3rd building back (pictures below.) The room was dated, and the "jacuzzi shower" looked like something from the 1970's "honeymoon in the Poconos" I was told I was given an upgraded room...you'll see the photo below...you, too, can enjoy this luxurious stay for $195/night... My room faced a street across from what is apparently a dog park, and while I love dogs, I do not appreciate being awakened by them at 5AM, right outside my window. My room had an odor to it...not sure if it was mold, a dirty A/C vent...the washcloths were dirty and thread-bare (see photos) I emailed, followed by a letter, requesting management review my stay and "make it right", i.e., considering the inconvenience I incurred (including the shock of walking in on a strange man) and the response I received said, “I apologize for the front desk error regarding your room and Mr. X's room. This is not a common error, thank goodness, but unfortunately mistakes do happen…” Them making it right was an “upgraded” room – see attached photos. So - all of that for almost $400.00! My advice - stay anywhere BUT The Carriage House Inn...it's not safe, and they don’t care!

Reviewed By 395debbieg

The only good thing about this place was the staff. They were all friendly and helpful with the front desk guy, Leonard, doing all he could to help. My brother, sister, and I were in town only for 1 night and he worked with us to get us adjoining rooms. Went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. The rooms, on the other hand, were a different story. They were clean but were in sad shape. Our bathtub/shower needed to be replaced, the place needed to be painted, the coffee maker quit after the first cup, the carpet should have been replaced, etc. Won't be staying here again!
