Room was comfortable enough, but the heater died in the middle of the night and when I called the front desk the hotel employee offered no solution, and when I went to take a shower a big chunk of gross brown stuff came out of the drain.

Room was clean. There were little hairs when i pulled back the sheets. But the linnens were fresh and clean looking just looked like a few hairs that made it through the laundry. Shower although in my room did not get any warmer than room temperature for the 4 nights i was there. Which was disappointing given the frigid temperatures outside. Breakfast was something else. I am not used to a continental breakfast not including a waffle bar and scrambled eggs as a base standard. There were muffins and toast and bagels and some premade biscuit sandwiches in the fridge to microwave if you wanted a hint of protein. This to me was unfortunate as I chose this hotel over another because it stated continental breakfast. But staff was super friendly and hotel was really clean.

The room was excellent and clean and comfortable. The breakfast was minimal, a waffle or pancake machine would go a long way here. One big problem was that the hot water was not very hot and the water pressure seemed low. This was reported to the front desk. Location is quite nice being right beside the NH liquor store!
