Diamond Inn Motel

Had made reservations at the hotel about a 1/2 mile away from here. The desk clerk said they were sold out because of a storm & power outage the night before. He made a call & told us to go to the Diamond Inn for the night because they were the only room available for 50 miles. We drove less than a mile away to the Diamond Inn where we paid $61 for a room with 2 queen beds. Signs posted on the office window stated NO REFUNDS, NO VISITORS, NO KEY REPLACEMENTS. We parked quite a ways from our 2nd floor room and were immediately sized up by the gang of people standing in open doorways and sitting or standing on the stairs we had to walk up to get to our room. We gathered our bags and walked passed the stair gang to our room. The chain on the door was missing, there were at least 200 cigarette burn holes on the bed spread. The sheets were FLITHY, the TV mounted on the wall was deeply scratched, the bathroom sink was covered in burn marks. The bathroom door wouldn’t close because the door jam was missing most of the wood around the latch. The shower curtain had more cigarette burns on it and the bathmat had a large muddy foot print on it. I don’t mean that the sheets, shower curtain, & towels were dingy, I mean they were dirty with recent bodily fluids. We covered the bed with the cleanest moving blankets we had with us and tried to get a few hours of sleep. People were up all night talking loudly and partying outside our room and on the floor below us. A few times throughout the night we heard loud voices that were just outside our door and it sounded like people were trying to open our door. The bars on the office doors, the walk up window where we paid for the room, and the NO REFUNDS sign should’ve tipped us off that we should have kept going but we were too tired to drive on. I will never forget this horrible stay and I will never stay at a Diamond Inn again. Do yourself a favor and don’t stay here!
