Upon check in told the wifi was not working. Then in the room TV was not working. Called the office they did send someone to the room but couldn't fix the TV. Suggested a different room. So we moved to a different room TV a lot smaller but it worked. Had to go back to the office to get the keys/chip card exchanged. We asked for a discount on our bill. no luck no discounts. Not okay. The next morning free Continental breakfast waffle maker is broken. imagine that. Enough said.

The location was perfect. So quiet. Check in was a breeze. Hidden treasure. So happy I didn't book at Hamptons, Holiday in or a larger franchise. This was perfect. Not fancy. Room was clean, plenty parking, full size fridge, stove, microwave and the river.

The room smell musty. The was a small blood stain on one of the sheets and the sheets needed to be replace in general. A cockroach ran across the nightstand in the morning as we were getting ready to leave. Awful place.

Run Down

The rooms we a bit run down and somewhat dirty. The property seems to be falling apart and not kept up with, but has tons of potential. There were some renovations, but they seemed to be DIY. Front desk people were very friendly, but room service was poor. After the first night our towels were taken but not replaced, bed not made, and lights left on that were not before we left for the day. Breakfast was just waffles, bagels, and cereal. In the end i dont think it was worth $100 a night
