Better in the past

I have stayed at the Vagabond Inn in the past and I have had good experiences. This time things weren't as good. I went to turn on the television and noticed there wasn't a remote control. Not a problem, I went to the front desk and the manager was able to find one for me. He gave me one from another room. When I returned to my room, the remote would not turn the television on. I later discovered that it had been unplugged. There was a refrigerator, microwave and television but not enough outlets to plug them all in. I plugged the tv in but noticed it did not have a cable connection to bring in channels. I asked four different times if the hotel staff could come and look at the connection. No one ever showed up. Drinks in the vending machines were almost completely sold out. Only one flavor was left in the machines. The hotel is close to In n Out burger so I ended up going there for drinks. The room condition was nice but I don't know if I will choose Vagabond in the future.
