I felt safe in the area. There were always people walking in the area. It's close to the highway. The breakfast was less than average. There were hot items available, but it's very low grade. The property IS next to a lake so bugs and spiders are somewhat expected, but there were a couple of spiders in the room. We had a lake view, but it would have been nice if the windows were clean. The beds were comfortable. Staff was not always at the front desk and I had to wait 10-15 for someone to show up so I could check in. Be warned that there is no elevator, so if you cannot do stairs, request a room on the first floor. The ice machine was not functioning, so we had to ask the front desk if we wanted ice. The staff was friendly and never seemed to mind helping. Overall, our stay was fine. The hotel was convenient for us as it was close to Salem.

I needed a room for one night because I was attending a wedding in the area so it served its purpose just fine. The view of the lake was lovely! However both my room and the parking lot smelled like marijuana which I didn't like. The towels and sheets also had stains on them as well.

Lake view lovely

Pleasant location. Breakfast was okay. Eggs tasted like a mix and meat hash-browns casserole was odd. Staff were welcoming, Barn door on bathroom keeps coming off the runners and does not provide a sense of privacy due to the gaps when closed. Beds comfortable. Lake view is lovely.

The grounds and the pool are amazing. The hotel and rooms are old and dated. Not bad for the price point if you just need a place to land at the end of the day.

Some of my primary concerts for this inn are around cleanliness. Stained carpets, bathtub and the smell! There is a pool but there’s no signage and it’s behind a nasty dumpster that is rank and leaks into the parking lot. The free breakfast was meh but mostly everything was dirty

We were quite comfortable and the staff were all great! The clientele was a mix of foreigners, tourists, college parents and a few people “down on their luck” for want of a non judgmental term. We found it useful to be reminded that we are fortunate to be able to chose our accommodations Wakefield has a lovely town center with some excellent dining! Sabatino’s, Public Kitchen and Asparagus to name a couple we enjoyed!
