Exceeded expectations

We came not expecting a great deal as the hotel was the cheapest we'd stayed in but it exceeded our expectations. Staff in the lobby were welcoming and friendly. The coffee in both the lobby and room was good, the amenities in the room were also good. The bed was comfortable although the pillows were very lumpy. The shower was tired and bath stained but worked very well. The hotel was excellent for a brief one night's stay. Would recommend breakfast at the Auburn Diner. It was superb and excellent value!

Our bathroom ceiling around the heat lamp would leak large amounts of water if the person staying above us was using the shower. During this time we could not use the bathroom without the water getting on us. We were not offered a new room. We stay here every year with no problem, and was disappointed this time.

The huge full wall mirror behind the bed sort of weirded me out. The body soap smelled like lysol. Shoes made a sticking sound on the bathroom floor. Overall a good place to rest your head for the night. Had to watch where walking to car, dog poop all over in grass areas.

The condition of this place reflects in the price you pay. It’s old, outdated, provides the bare minimum….a place to sleep. Upon arriving our room generally smelled like bleach which was a good sign. By the next morning I opened my eyes to seeing the entire ceiling coated in nicotine stains, which became even more obvious when I left and my clothes smelled of stale smoke. Wouldn’t stay again.
