Dingy, smelly blankets and sheets, dingy dirty shower. Broken door latch, doors slamming all house of the night. I really can't believe I had to pay over $200 for this room.

I liked that the rooms are newly remodeled so everything seems fresh and clean. Some placed I've stayed at have non-smoking rooms that smell like cigarettes bit not this one. The room's amenities and layout remind me of the Killington Grand Hotel in Killington VT. I also like that its a little around the corner from the busy business area so there's not a lot of traffic or noise.

Great experience but our only issue was that the sink was outside of the bathroom in the sleeping area other than that I would definitely recommend this hotel and stay again. The hotel was spotless and the breakfast was very good for what we paid for the room, 9 out of 10 just because of the wash hand basin location.

Fine stay in Keene

The Keene City Hotel was fine. It looks renovated. Breakfast was good. The bed was reasonably comfortable. I didn't love having the sink separate from the rest of the bathroom because it keeps people awake at night u til the last person is ready for bed, but it was t a big deal. I would stay here again.
