The location for cycling was nice because the road was temporarily closed off for construction and traffic was late. It was also close enough to local businesses. In short: Check-in was easy. Parking was plentiful and easy, The girl working the front counter was super friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Prices were reasonable. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Continental breakfast was offered. Although I did not use them, there was a pool and Jacuzzi area. The only downside, was there was no fitness room. I enjoyed my stay and would definitely visit again.

As soon as I got there Marcell at the front desk said hello and asked me how my day was, she was very friendly. The next day I ran into her again and we had another nice chat, thank you for being so kind, great staff member. The property itself is updated throughout. Nice lobby, nice common areas, rooms are clean, they have a mini fridge and coffee maker, beds are comfy. The bathroom had a nice glass shower and tile. This property also has a small outdoor pool, mini business center, a meeting room, free parking with a large lot, an excellent gym (more on that) and of course complimentary breakfast. Speaking of breakfast, Nora is a one woman show and did an amazing job. The eggs, potatoes and sausage were on point. She does the whole spread from the waffles to the yogurt and everything in between, thank you. The gym I must mention and I wish all Hilton's would mimic the setup here. The gym is pretty big, various cardio equipment (treadmills, ellipticals, a rowing machine and a Peloton bike.). They have two benches, free weights up to 75 pounds, a multifunction weight machine, a few kettle bells and stretching equipment. I was so happy, I really like to have a nice complete gym and will choose hotels because of it. Very happy with my stay here and when traveling back up in that area will for sure stay here. Enjoy!

We proceeded to ask the front desk attendant for a room for THREE people. The girl did not seem like she knew what she was doing so she was screaming across the room asking another lady for prices and if this or that other room were available until they finally figure out which room to give us but that's when we came across the next problem, the lady did not know what THREE GUESTS meant. She kept saying that she had to charge us like another $20 extra aside from what the room already cost just in case we decided to bring another random person to the room. Like seriously lady, I was just trying to get some rest. We paid for the room, since we didn't want to keep arguing or having to drive to go somewhere else. We got to the room & the first thing I saw when I walked in was a nasty ROACH. I told the lady and instead of being helpful, she was extremely rude about it saying that I probably brought them from home. My jaw dropped all the way down to the floor. I was talking to her in the most respectful way possible and for her to respond like that. I felt extremely disappointed and offended. I had never met anyone more rude than this lady and her coworker that also kept saying rude things and speaking in their foreign language which I find very inappropriate when they are supposed to be providing us with good customer service. The room was decent in size. The bed made a lot of noise plus the AC was extremely loud as well. The toilet had some stains that could have been removed when they cleaned it. We went to sleep and as it was time to check out we decided to get another night so I called the front desk from the room to see if it was possible and how much it would be. They told me that it would be the same price as the day before plus another $20 but they needed to go inside the room to check that we didn't sneak anyone else at night while they weren't watching or that we have not been doing anything illegal in there and if I didn't accept that we would have to go look for another hotel. I said "Ok, thanks I might have to do that then" for which they responded "It's ok. Do whatever you want. I DONT CARE". I just couldn't believe the way they were treating us when we didn't disrespect them in any way. Yet we still tried to get the night and I allowed them to come inspect the room but they still decided not to let us stay because my boyfriend didn't open the bathroom door when he was taking a shower. The lady was trying to open the bathroom door and let herself in like WTF.. At that point we have had it so I told her to please get out of the room so we could get all of our stuff and leave. The lady did not wanna leave the room. I guess she expected my boyfriend to change in front of her. I threatened her with calling the cops if she didn't provide us with a little bit of privacy so we could gather everything and get going. So it was then when she finally stepped out but stayed outside the door like a guard dog just in case we decided to steal the bed or something. Finally we walked out to go to the car as she was screaming out loud to not ever go back to that hotel and then talking in her language. I'm sure she wasn't saying nice things. I have never written a review this long before but I felt like it was necessary to tell about my worst hotel stay ever SO FAR. But yes I am NEVER going back to this place again. And if you do decide to give it a try just remember. You have been warned. I hope they get some customer service training or something that can help them treat their guests in a better manner.

The manager worked with me on a deal as it was not the peak season and I had a very clean room with two full-sized beds all to myself. The owner was very hospitable and nonchalant about the transaction, and did not require a lot of excess forms and waivers to be filled out. I truly appreciated the service and enjoyed my stay at this establishment. For those wondering, my room had a small refrigerator, microwave oven, two full sized beds, a shower (no tub), a dresser, a television, and free wifi. On top of it, the room was non-smoking and it was plain to see that the room indeed had not been altered by the scent of cigarettes. I would stay here again.

Everything was decent enough as far as a simple room goes but, when I turned on the show the next morning, the valve just spun in circles...... no water.... at all. When I called the front desk, she said they would come up with a key to a nearby room so I can use their shower. The worst part was her telling me that they have had issues with this happening before in this room. What? The hotel was less than 1/2 full. Why put me in a room known to have plumbing issues?

The rooms are always clean, the Elderwood is an ice touch, and the vibe is always fun. During this trip, all was fine when what sounded like the HVAC system above our room started to knock. It's an old historic building so, things happen. The knocking though quickly turned into a roar. We contacted the front desk and this is where the true professionalism of the hotel crew, and particularly Maria, shined through. Maria quickly came upstairs, assessed the situation, triaged with other teams inside the hotel, and identified a solution within 20 minutes. Given the scope of the repair was unclear at the time, she moved us to another room and even upgraded us (even though she didn't have to!) for the inconvenience. Things happen, that's not an issue for us, it's how the team addresses them when they come up. The Darling team rose to the occasion with flying colors so seamlessly in this situation, especially Maria. So for us, just underscores a series of positive experiences at the hotel. This isn't an ultra luxury 5-star hotel, so don't come here expecting that. But it's a great place to stay in Visalia with a premium, boutique vibe, great restaurant, and clean well apportioned rooms. We will be back.
