前哨酒店(The Outpost)

Great hotel. Easy check in. Comfy beds. Though the room is a bit too small. Almost no room to open the luggage

The property was clean and a very safe downtown area. With easy parking. Perfect for someone needing a bed to sleep-in and go. For a quick overnight due to travels. Super close to BZM airport! However, it is a dorm style or hostel style property with shared bathrooms. And the doors to the units were a bit loud with people coming and going. Perhaps silent hinges would help, as guest were checking in and out throughout the night and you could hear doors opening and closing as one tried to sleep. Beside that, it was suitable for a quick trip and a clean room to stay in.

People should note there are no desks/work stations in the rooms. My coworker and I solved this by going to the back lobby and setting up my laptop there. Guest Wifi was hinky but the manager troubleshot that (via text).

We thought the lack of an in-room bathroom would be a downside, but it was across the hall so that wasn’t too bad. However, there were plenty of other problems. The room was about 9 x 15 feet with no window. No wonder they don’t list the square footage of the room. With the bed and the countertop with the sink there was barely enough room for two pieces of luggage. There was a vent in the ceiling, but it seemed there was no ventilation. It was hot in the room. There was a fan but it was broken. The floor was dirty. The TV was useless. It was noisy and light came in around the door. There was no staff so when we had a problem with he door lock there was no one to help. Without any staff there we were concerned with security. Breakfast was packets of oa**eal. Overall this was a miserable experience. It was so bad we feel we deserve a refund.

Caught me off guard a bit. It reminded me of an upgraded hostel. The rooms do not come with built in restrooms. The place has multiple communal restrooms and bathrooms. Overall the place is very clean and good for a quick stay if you need to be close to the airport. Our stay was good.

Very nice set up and very easy check in my only complaint is that I it was very warm in our room and no way to really make it cooler as there was no thermostat in the room. The mattress was very soft which some people may prefer but I need a more firm mattress. This is one of the cleanest motels I’ve ever stayed at.

Ok, this "Micro Hotel" experience is interesting. There is a code key to get into the lobby, that's good, given it's right on the street. However, the "One Key" smart phone entry to your room is cumbersome and totally unnecessary. One must download the ap, and have wifi, location and bluetooth enabled for it to work and its operation is slower than a card key. They also have lock boxes (you get a code via text) which I didn't try, but might be better. There's no staff on site to speak of. Breakfast bar is lean and bathroom is down the hall. Poor insulation means you can hear other guests' doors opening and closing in the middle of the night. Fortunately I just needed a place to sleep before an early flight in the morning and the price was a little better than any other stay's close to the airport. Cab companies in the area seem "flaky" in the area and difficult to schedule and the Outpost was of no help in finding that transportation. So if you are totally connected and really independent and just need a place to sleep, its OK for that.

Very clean .. a hostel type set up…. But you have your own room… I do like that you can make your own coffee and they have a fridge for your food if you’d like…. Had a bit of trouble with the lock box for fobs but finally I got in😊

Read description thoroughly, it is a Hostel as described by attending manager. Not our cup of tea sharing bathrooms. I selected it expecting a boutique hotel downtown, close to airport. It was clean and small with shared facilities. My family was not happy with arrangements, so we never unpacked and moved on to another local hotel chain. Friendly people, just not our scene.
