Vulcan Country Inn - Town of Vulcan

I like this place. Staff was kind and room was clean.Definitely recommend.

So we got this inn as it was closest to a wedding that we were attending. We came around 1800hrs to check in and no one was manning the desk. After 20 mins of waiting, calling the hotel, calling the number listed on the front desk, the people who ran the place walked in. I assume they went out for dinner. I don’t have an issue with people going out for dinner but I think what would have made my experience better is if they had a sign stating they were out and when we would expect them to come back as we had a wedding rehearsal that we were almost late for because of this. When the couple walked in, there was no acknowledgment of them being absent. We received keys to our room and on the first floor, you can access the room from the inside and outside. No dead bolts but the door automatically locks from the outside and there is a chain. I had trouble opening the door from the outside. Took many tries. The room itself was alright. It came with a table, a microwave, and fridge. The were only two plug ins. The bathroom toilet paper roll was empty upon arriving and they had a full toilet paper roll on top of the toilet. The beds seemed clean enough. Smelled like an old hotel room. Could use some airing. It had an air conditioner. While we were waiting for service there didn’t seem to be any workers at the restaurant or the lounge to help as well. I think in the end it was an alright experience given the limited choices. They did do housecleaning daily which is nice.

Decided to spend the night in Vulcan since we had a couple back to back hockey games. Arrived and the staff was friendly even offered to take my bags.We got a suite with a full fridge and stove. Everything appeared fine on first glance we had to drop our things and run to the next place. When we got back I realized how dirty and disgusting it was. We had to use the phone since we didn’t have the wifi password but the phone had so much dust it looked like it hasn’t been cleaned in months. Went to use the microwave to make popcorn and the same thing not clean. The worst part was the toilet it was disgusting. It looked like surface level clean but the bottom hasn’t been cleaned in a long time. The toilet lid actually came off as well. The beds seemed fine as I checked them before we slept in them. The room had lots of space. Walls are super thin and you can hear everything. Spoke with the staff upon check out and explained how gross it was but they didn’t seem like cared at all. Will never stay here again !

Rooms: The room was dirty, we had to ask to change rooms.

New owners I think. Fair bit of work to do yet. Room was clean. Hotel was quiet on Friday night. Good enough. Shower pressure made up for long drive. Pretty sure it would peel paint.Nearby activities: Right DT for star trek stuff. Close to food.Walkability: Small town. Easy walking.
