Property grounds were beautiful and well kept. The rooms were nice, the bathroom was clean but it could use a revamp. Stayed here because it was close to The Observatory (went for a concert) and for the price I paid, I would 100% stay here again.

The receptionists were courteous & attended to all of our needs. The room was average.. needs to be cleaned & a new paint job is sorely needed. Otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the Vagabond Inn.. Will definitely stay there again. Thank you for accommodating us!

The first room we were given smelled incredibly moldy, there was drywall dust on the floor and the bathroom was disgusting. Baseboards were peeling off the walls. So they gave us second room. The second room smelled better, but the air conditioning was on in this room, which is probably what made it smell better. You could see water damage along the baseboards. We ended up getting a refund and went somewhere else. I’ve never seen a more atrocious place.

When i booked the site said breakfas t included, but it did not. The site also said restaurant was on site. There was none. Also i booked this site due to having a pool and hottub. Went to use the hottub, but it was totally cold. The wife complained that the room smelled and that the TV was way to small. Was not happy.

It has roaches, the building was run down, and the room smelled like pee. They have mold and I am honestly shocked they allow anyone to stay here. The only thing good about the property is the large pool and they strong jacuzzi. But the hotel itself needs a code inspector to come in and see if it is even safe for ppl to stay there.
