We stayed for one night and overall everything was good. We got a room towards the front main road and it can be loud at times in the night. Also wish they can add more to the light breakfast don’t mind pay a little extra for that.

Not great. Will not stay again

Asked for handicapped room, handicapped parking , pet friendly . Room was down a flight of stairs, had to park at the end of the building and walk to the other end of the building to the room. Parking lot was very icy. Rooms are not pet friendly. Only had ice cold water, no hot water. Answer from the desk was ,” Thanks for letting us know. “ The room was clean and comfortable. But getting into it was very difficult.

Kinda crappy inside, yucky old table, cracked walls, chipped paint, bathroom sink was dirty. The faucets were caked up with grim and build up, orangish smudges on the sink. Things just were not cleaned and santized properly. End to curtain rod was missing in the little window. It just didnt seem very clean, we slept on top of the blankets and covered up with our own, blanket that i had in my trunk. The water was freezing, takes much longer to warm up than anywhere else ive stayed The only good things, the fridge stayed cold, and the heat worked from the wall unit.

The room was as advertised. Clean but basic. Decent for the price which was reasonable. However the continental breakfast was underwhelming essentially just hot or cold cereal, an apple, juice and coffee. I wasn’t expecting much but usually most places have prepackaged muffins or yogurt, granola bars, tea bags, or one of those waffle makers. It was a big long counter with next to nothing on it. Kind of sad honestly to see.
