Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
This property is in need of some serious refurb. Huge dirt spot (18") in the ceiling over the shower. Sink and tub badly chipped. Towels were like two paper towels, very thin. Room not cleaned in two days. Cleaning requested (twice) but no can do. Desk clerk when we checked out was very nice. $100/night vs $180 for the Hampton. Get what you pay for.

Filthiest hotel I’ve ever stayed in…
This is, hands down, the filthiest hotel I’ve ever stayed in. And I stay in a LOT of hotels for work. I have NO idea how your rating is so high, it makes me think it is artificially inflated with fake reviews??? If it was not the end of a 700 mile drive and late at night and there were more options, I’d have left.

The front desk staff was excellent in all respects. My room however was probably the worst I’ve ever stayed in. Very old, splatters on walls, chipped tile, bathtub so bad I didn’t even use it. Bed was very poorly made (lumpy, wrinkled). I’m not sure if everything was just old and worn out or dirty. Fridge DID work. Lovely exterior of inn and good location but will never stay there again.

I have no idea how this has such good ratings. The room was completely disgusting. There was food under the beds, a chicken bone in the floor, holes in the walls, a sock in the bed, brown smears on the bathroom door, it was so bad. We got a new room, and that one had a huge roach under the bathroom sink. So I requested a full refund and we left. The gal at the front desk was really nice and helpful.

Dated but convenient
Hotel is very dated. Bed was very uncomfortable and old. Shower is old and patched. Walls have stuff dripping down on them. Price was cheaper than the other hotels.

One of the dirtiest hotels I’ve stayed in, including sticky floors, cobwebs on the lampshades and a rusty soap holder in the shower.
