The Lofts at Mendelbaum Cellars

Don’t stay here. We booked for two nights in one of the lofts. Which was non refundable, and I understand why. We ended up leaving after the first night and paying the extra money to stay somewhere else. TV does not work. There were wires sticking out of the wall. Which is a safety concern. No front desk, had we arrived after the tasting rooms closed we would’ve never been able to find our room. There was hair all over the sheets of the bed. The comforter had white stains on it indicating it had not been washed either. Stains on the faucet sink in the bathroom like it hadn’t been cleaned. Kitchenette only had a sink and microwave, no stove top. The building appeared to be an add on, the rooms felt like we were staying in someone’s bedroom that was slapped together. The lofts should not even be offered on their website as a place to stay. As for the winery, we did not bother trying it, for the simple fact that they didn’t bother promoting it. Overall, the environment was not inviting and we did not feel comfortable staying there.

The door stuck so it was extremely hard to get in to. However the room was nice and clean. It was in a good location.

This loft room was a good alternative to a hotel in town as it's only 10 miles from downtown Fredericksburg. Room was clean and had a comfy queen bed, good hot water, and a decent kitchenette. Negatives were the central heat didn't work (owner provider electric space heaters, but without temperature-specific thermostats), the television's Fire Stick didn't work so no tv programming, and the entrance to the two loft rooms was right next to an open-air material storage pavilion for the tasting room, so it didn't make for a very good first impression. One good/bad item worth noting is that service/housekeeping was quick to respond to no toilet paper (none installed and no extra rolls in the room).

My stay in the West Loft was good, until on Sunday, 12/10/23 I got up to take a shower and could not turn on the water in the shower. So therefore, no shower. I reported to Francisco and he said that he didn't know why the previous guests did not report it and that he would have it fixed by 12/11/23. That did not address my stay as I was checking out on 12/10/23.

This place is horrible. Floor was filthy couldn’t walk without your shoes on, we got into bed and the sheets had like sand on them. The tub was cracked and looked like it was going to fall through the floor, no shower curtain and also they do not make it clear where your room is. I will never stay here again and it is not worth the money I spent.

No sign, had to asked for help to find it. Awful parking/ entrance. Next to highway, too noisy. Missing Shower curtain, burnt light bulb in bathroon, no amenities like coffee or water, old plastic flower decorations, wall outlet with no power, no nightstand ligths. Not recommended.

Upon arrival, my husband and I had a hard time finding our room. We approached the gentleman in the Tasting room for direction. He explained to us how we could find our room but it was still unclear to my husband and I. I asked him a question about the location in which he stared at me unresponsive for a few seconds. Making me feel uncomfortable and stupid for even asking. He again explained how to find the room and we left still confused but didn’t want to bother. After locating the room, we found that there was no shower curtain and a 1/4 of a used roll of toilet paper. We were only staying for one night so we didn’t bother asking for more. At no fault of the room, it is noisy. You will hear road noise throughout the night and a local winery likes to play live music. I will not be staying here again. After the rude encounter by the gentleman in the Tasting room, I was disappointed I had to give this establishment my money.

It was quiet, but there wasn't a shower curtain, no body soap so we went and bought some, there was a coke bottle and a pair of underwear under one of the nightstands. Oh and on the listing it mentioned a gift, no gift.
