The initial interaction with the receptionist was nice, she was friendly and helpful. When we got into the room, the light switch didn't work. It smelled of basement (it was the lower/half basement room but still), and beneath the bed skirts was very dirty. The other guests were noisy and sketchy, from children running up and down the stairs, to people knocking on doors and shouting all through the night. But it was cheap, and a warm room to stay during a blizzard. The people were nice, the room not so much. You get what you pay for.

Im kindly on the rocks with this place. It wasnt horrible. For a budget/economy hotel, i guess it works. You get what you pay for, right? The heater worked, the bed wasnt bad. Coming into the room, the light switch by the door didnt work. So it was dark. Mini fridge and microwave in room. They have a sign up for quiet time, 10 pm to 6 am. It kindly appears that locals are living in the place. A couple of the people around the room i had were pretty loud and noisy, till around 11. Not constant, but slamming doors and loud talking in the halls. The toilet flushed like it was clogged. The room had a plunger in it, so it must be something they cant easily fix. The shower, the cover around the knob was not attached. It was pulled out away from the wall. Took probably close to 6 minutes for the water to get warm. 8 minutes to get hot. Its a cheap place to stay if thats what you are looking for, as a solo traveler. I wouldnt rent the place if i had the wife and/or kids with me.

Fifty Dollar Hotel Room For Sure!

The floor in my room was sticky. The toilet seat was broken. The tub didn't plug correctly. It was a fifty dollar hotel room for sure!

Our stay at the Bison

Our stay at the Bison was ok. The hosts were wonderful. The drawers on dresser wouldnt stay closed. No coffee in the room or the lobby. We would stay there again.
