Cold and dirty

Door had a quarter inch gap under it and iwth it being outside facing, the gap was so large leaves could blow in and no doubt insects if in summer time of year. Had to push a towel in the gap as it was 10 degrees out. Wall heater would only tun on for 20 seconds at a time. Shut off and in 2-5 mins would tunr on again for a short time. Odd. Not overly clean or updated at all. We called to have out room cleaned on Sunday - came back Sunday night and it was never cleaned, no clen towels. (3 night stay)

Poor value, not worth it.

I’ve stayed at this hotel before and things were fine. This time wasn’t great! We arrived late in the evening, after 11pm. Parking was scarce, the parking lot was a mess (pot holes, no visible parking spaces, dimly light, poorly plowed). We arrived at our second floor room to find that the heat had not been turned on at all when the outside temperature was below 20 degrees. It took the room over two hours to warm up enough that my daughter stopped shivering and could fall asleep. The television didn’t work, but the television in a nearby room worked loud enough for us to hear it all night long! The breakfast on Sunday mornings is apparently served later than other days of the week, so we didn’t get any breakfast. We didn’t get much sleep, we’re worried about the safety of our vehicle, froze ourselves, and didn’t get any breakfast, not worth the money.

Older but acceptable

This is an older motel. The carpet needs to be replaced. The directions for the TV remote didn’t match the remote in the room. The heater in the room was not working properly. The temperature was set to 61 but it was blazing hot.
