Quality Inn Oakwood

"Almost Perfect"

Overall, I have to say that this is a wonderful hotel. A great value for the money - the staff is very professional, friendly and accommodating, the property and rooms are clean and well maintained, with comfortable beds and a very good complimentary breakfast. There is only one problem that we experienced, actually, it was only my husband that had the problem, but it was enough of an annoyance that it might be a deal killer from us staying at this hotel again. And it's a complaint that you probably have never read about. I will try to explain this as delicately as I can. They have installed water saving toilets in the rooms, and that in itself is a good thing. The problem with these toilets is that they must have been designed by women or eunuchs - the water level in the bowls is very high - there is only 4 inches from the top of the water to the bottom of the toilet seat - needless to say, fine for a woman, but for a middle aged man whose "dangly bits" tend to dangle lower every year - it is a rude awakening to have one's "intimate anatomy" be plunged into a bowl of cold water. To say that he didn't like it is a huge understatement. Anyway, I just wanted to give you all fair warning that your menfolk might take exception to the restroom fixtures. You can giggle if you like - and yes, I admit, it is kind of funny, but not if you are the one who must deal with this. It will make a man get real grumpy real fast. Other than that one problem, the hotel would have received a perfect score from us.
