Turbo Doo Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Our adventures with the Flying Dutchman at the Companion Inn, have always been a blast. Him on the dancefloor during Friday night Disco night, we have also developed a saying of 'What happens in Hearst, stays in Hearst '... I think Evil and 14Snow can say lots about his Dance skills. He sure showed the ladies last season in Val'dor a few moves.......And Denis knows not to come walking into a room unannounced any more... Right Buddy.... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From this past few days, and 2 weeks ago, riding with Evil and her sister, and Evil and Hubby, from my point of view, next time we are in Hearst in march, we will be trying out the Queens.

We noticed that Companion wasn't busy for dinner or breakfast. Super 8, doesn't help me, Holiday Inn would be awesome with my accumulated 460,000 IHG points.

Last time, I was there they were rude about me and my dad sitting and having a drink at bar and ordering food. They tried telling us bar is only for snack food and drinks, not dinner. Regular dinning room not licensed. In past there was never this issue there. Service was slow too, since they were trying to prove a point. Breakfast was good in regular dining room, no issue. Not sure if this is an one off experience or others have had a similar experience. Edited February 24, 2020 by Strong Farmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Pussy Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I told everyone the solution years ago. If it don't start, it's your problem. Lots of outlets in Hearst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have stayed there numerous times and have never had a bad experience, we have rooms booked there for our upcoming trip in March. no complaints at all from us. Like IQ we may look at staying next door one time for the pool and hot tub. The heated garage is a big plus for us though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always treated good there. Great when you call, the lady at the front desk says, oh you again?. Want more rooms?. We are just exploring other options. And from our experience with Evil, we went over and checked the place out, and her room, we will give the Queens a go. Its now the same owner as the companion anyways. We have also ate in the bar more times then we can count. Never had an issue, unlike some pretenders. The companion is our home away from home. Just simply seeing what else is around. Unlike some pretenders posts, our sleds never need the heated garage and start. Again another stupid false post..

First two was great never any issues and we are and drank at bar. Third time just that issue at bar not sure why to be honest. Probably just having a bad day. Garage is a bonus no doubt and nice drying sled out for next day’s ride. I go back again and desk people are always nice and never an issue with rooms or bookings!
