Not great. Will not stay again

Asked for handicapped room, handicapped parking , pet friendly . Room was down a flight of stairs, had to park at the end of the building and walk to the other end of the building to the room. Parking lot was very icy. Rooms are not pet friendly. Only had ice cold water, no hot water. Answer from the desk was ,” Thanks for letting us know. “ The room was clean and comfortable. But getting into it was very difficult.

Kinda crappy inside, yucky old table, cracked walls, chipped paint, bathroom sink was dirty. The faucets were caked up with grim and build up, orangish smudges on the sink. Things just were not cleaned and santized properly. End to curtain rod was missing in the little window. It just didnt seem very clean, we slept on top of the blankets and covered up with our own, blanket that i had in my trunk. The water was freezing, takes much longer to warm up than anywhere else ive stayed The only good things, the fridge stayed cold, and the heat worked from the wall unit.

The room was as advertised. Clean but basic. Decent for the price which was reasonable. However the continental breakfast was underwhelming essentially just hot or cold cereal, an apple, juice and coffee. I wasn’t expecting much but usually most places have prepackaged muffins or yogurt, granola bars, tea bags, or one of those waffle makers. It was a big long counter with next to nothing on it. Kind of sad honestly to see.

Expected a bit too much

We only needed to stay for 1 night so we didnt want to make a big deal. Check in was easy and the person was very nice. The room was dated but mostly clean. The bathroom was the biggest issue...the heated light was out, the exhaust fan wasn't working, the toilet would move almost 1/2 inch and the sink drain was super slow, the faucet had the hot and cold reversed. The TV was tiny and old. The restaurant on site was amazing! Overall, it wasnt the best but it met our needs for a 1 night stay.

No breakfast

I was very disappointed that breakfast was supposed to be included. We went at 830 and the time got breakfast was 7-9. There was just cereal with no milk. Coffee was watered down and there was nothing else there except a couple of apples. We had to go to a restaurant to eat breakfast. We booked there because breakfast was included. The room was cute but literally no one came to clean the room. They asked if we needed anything that was it.

Okay place not great.

Room was clean and comfortable although could use some repair—broken light fixture, chipped paint, etc. Could have used a second chair and the free breakfast was just cereal, juice and coffee and some apples—it left a lot to be desired. Plenty of parking. Water in bathroom took a long time to get hot. All in all, it was adequate for the price.

Budget hotel with limited amenities. Room was clean but staff was not always available. Probably would not stay again as we like hotels with more amenities.
