Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We came to stay here for one night and I almost left immediately after check in. The room was horrible. There was no dresser or counter, literally just a bed a table and a fridge with a microwave sitting on top. The bathroom was in horrible condition. The shower was filthy, the toilet paper looked like it had been peed on, there was no shower curtain, no soaps, nothing. It was terrible. I will NEVER stay here again. Ever.

Location: Excellent, but that's about it. I stayed at this hotel for four days with my family, and while the location was excellent—everything in town was within walking distance from the hotel—the rest of the experience was awful. Cleanliness: Terrible. The carpets were dirty, the bathroom hadn't been cleaned, there were used bar soaps, hair everywhere, and the towels were old and stained. Security: Extremely poor. Due to an error or oversight, I accidentally opened another guest's room with my key card. The person inside woke up scared because the door key cards seem almost generic. Staffing and service: Minimal. At night, there was only one employee for the entire hotel. I had to personally go find him because the phones in the rooms weren’t even connected to the wall, which was absurd. I had to go down to the front desk myself to get fresh towels and basic cleaning supplies like soap. On top of that, the lock on my room door either wouldn’t lock or wouldn’t open because the batteries were dead, and I had to track down the same employee to address this as well. Positives: The only saving grace was the location and the kindness of the ladies in the breakfast area in the mornings. Overall: Beyond the location and the friendly breakfast staff, this hotel is terrible. I would not recommend it.

The location is good but there is construction going on across the street thats an eye sore. The rooms are old and out dated and are musty smelling. The worst part was the bathroom. There was cordboard between the door and the wall as a hinge, the shower from the room above was leaking water through the ceiling into our tub . I definitely will not be returning.
