A Stay at A New World Inn Bed & Breakfast, Pensacola, FL November 2022 My friend and I stayed at A New World Inn during this past November, 2022. We were met by a woman at the desk who was talking to tech support because their “internet was down”. Little did we know, this would be a portend of our stay. The one “bright spot” of staying in this room was that, just across the street, a wedding was going on . We had a great view of the proceedings, it was a beautiful moment. However, when we first entered our (beautifully appointed) room, the woman who was at the desk, mentioned the room was hot. Neither my friend or I saw what she’d done, but suddenly, there was airflow in the room…this is important later. There was a small fridge in the corner of the room. If we touched it or tried to open the fridge, the fridge would fall to one side. There were two bottles of water on the top of the fridge, which we wondered if we used them we would be charged for them. The “breakfast” portion of the “Bed and Breakfast” left a great deal to be desired. The food appeared to be the leftovers from a previous breakfast, with hard biscuits and other sundries—served in a beautiful meeting room. When I went to get coffee in the morning, the coffee was like sludge and the only tea available was lipton decaf tea bags. There was no way for us to get ice at the B&B and ended up going to a nearby Publix for supplies. No vending machines for beverages or snacks were available. On Sunday afternoon, my friend and I were freezing in the room. I called down to the desk clerk to ask how the temperature could be adjusted because we were cold. I was told by the desk clerk (a male, this time) that there was “no way to adjust the temperature in the room because the thermostat controlled all of the inn. Thankfully, he was wrong, as we found the thermostat (above my bed) was set to 60 degrees (apparently by the desk clerk that showed us the room, when we checked in). It began to warm when the in-room thermostat was adjusted. There are walls of pictures of celebrities that had (allegedly) stayed at this inn and seemed pleased with their stay. I couldn’t help but believe that their stays had been a LONG time ago. The “home-baked cookies” (offered at the front desk) were tasty, but didn’t make up for all the problems we encountered at this inn
