The owner was extremely rude. Very poor customer service. I called to confirm my reservation and he could not only understand what I was asking, he didn’t care, shouted “24 hour cancellation” multiple times and hung up on me and then wouldn’t answer when I called back. His strong foreign accent made it very hard to understand him but his attitude was the real problem. The common areas were not very clean and just run down. The pool looked dirty and the hot tub wasn’t functioning, looked like it had been broke for a long time. Made us stay on second floor even though we asked for first and it wasn't busy. No elevator. The back door was broken so you couldn’t exit. That’s a fire hazard. The toilet was dirty. The bedding smelled like bleach and that was the only saving grace of the whole place. I don’t leave bad reviews but this is experience left me no choice.

Hotel is in a great little town. Quiet area. The room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was a bit lacking but sufficient - it's a free breakfast so can't complain too much. Check-in was quick and easy, and the owner was very nice and welcoming.

Pictures were inaccurate, not current on website. This hotel is a little run down. Air conditioner did not work in one room and owners did move us to a different room so that was nice. Breakfast had waffles and the coffee was good. Hot tub was not working. We did not use the swimming pool but it was open. We stayed for 2 nights and this hotel did make up the beds and clean room after the first day. All in all rooms were clean and price of hotel was good.

The hotel doesn't have an elevator. I was just released to start walking after breaking my leg. We arrived (prepaid) to find that I would have take the stairs because they didn't have any rooms on the 1st floor. Never thought I had to make sure a hotel, charging $200 a night, had an elevator. What if someone elderly or walker booked and now had nowhere to stay. The heat in the whole hotel, was uncomfortably hot. It was July, lobby had ceiling fans turned off, hallway only had 1 of 3 air conditioners on. Room was clearly

Was an average hotel, with a sub-par overall experience: Upon check-in (and needing anything) the staff is almost never attending the front desk; You’ll need to dial a number on a phone sitting on the counter - even if they’re sitting 10 feet away, watching TV in the back room. And when they come to assist, it feels like you (their guest) is a big inconvenience. I had this experience at check-in, also when we needed new sheets. We had to ask for new sheets, because sheets on one of the beds appeared to be stained from a previous guest. Then what I was given, was another pile of crumpled sheets - I had no confidence the new sheets were washed, as they made no attempt to even have them folded. The breakfast was also a sub-par experience, one or two selections of cold cereal, and milk and OJ in pitchers, which looked rather old.

Language barrier. Breakfast there wasn't much for options. The syrup must have been old, was VERY tacky like glue. Juices sat out on the counter and were WARM! Sheets were dirty so we slept on top of the bedding. Bathroom was dirty, mold in the shower area, mirrors were all dirty, towels stunk and the whole room stunk bad. The room was very dusty as if it hadn't been cleaned for a long time. Noone was ever at the front desk. Hot tub was not working. In the pool area, there wasnt extra towels only 3 towels out. Ants all over inside the pool area floor. Pricey for one night stay.

Staff was very rude, asked for my key to be reprogrammed his wife/coworker had to let out a very audible groan because I asked for something while they were in the office watching a movie. Hallway smelled like sewage the entire time we were there. While we were gone some one was IN our room and wrote on our bathroom mirror “I will watch you sleep” very unsettling especially having 2 BABIES sleeping in our room!!!

Very poor check-in. Not welcoming and at check out, bills on the desk in a stack. No one at the desk. The hallways smelled like sewage back up when we arrived but by the end of our 2 day stay, it wasn't as bad. Morning breakfast was questionable. Coffee out and coffee by enterance, for guests, was cold.

Staff is very polite, appears only a "couple" runs and operates the hotel; however, they must be overwhelmed with such a large facility. The headboard did fall off the wall in the middle of the night and strike my husband's head. We informed the hotel's management. We were never asked if he was injured or the possibility of compensation, but we were heading to my mom's funeral, so we just moved on. We were also not overly impressed with the breakfast freshness, but we always understand the difficulty.

Horrible stay !

The guy at the front desk was rude. Snipped when I said we have a service dog. No sheets were changed , no shampoo enough for me or my kid or husband. Coffee maker had a coffee bag left in it and an empty beer can in the room. It was freezing walking in the hallways. And the owner parked in the handicap parking when we needed the front one for our daughter. No sticker on plate or a hanging handy cap sign. Breakfast was a joke. And charged me way more than they advertised to me.

We arrived really late and last minute. Check-in was quick. The room was cold, especially the bathroom. Turned up the temperature, and it was really hot. No reasonable middle temp. The hot tub was closed, and the water was yellow. The pool was okay. The breakfast was not the best. Very limited to a few carb items, but you get what you pay for. It fit what we needed, but definitely not the 8.2 rating that Expedia gave it.
