The location was excellent, walking distance to main Street and attractions. Was pretty quiet given the road. Lots of food options nearby. Room was ok. Bathroom needed a deep clean. Microwave and tv box didn't work which was frustrating but staff quickly resolved both.

Just plane dirty

Room and fixtures are dated. Room 110 has a good TV. There were scuff markes on the wall and door to the restroom. The towels in the sink area looked dirty. The towel rack was broken. The bathroom walls were dirty. The base board was dirty. The counter top was water danaged the mat in the tup was dirty. So disapointing. I will never stay there again.

Closed

It was closed for renavations. They did not bother to check if they had any reservations for the Christmas Holidays. So after driving 4 hours we come to find no one there and have to look else where. Terrible management.

The hotel was closed for repairs. We was not able to get a room. Expedia shouldn’t have taken our money knowing that this place was closed for repairs. If not, they should have been checking up on hotels are working or close.

Shower did not work well. Staff came and replaced shower head. Shower was better after that. Sink leaked on counter when turned on. Toilet had a crack in it. Trim at bathroom door was rotted. Entry door has a big gap and lets the cold air in.

Very underwhelming - won’t be back

King room smaller than expected - photos are misleading. What little is not old and worn, is the least acceptable new replacement. A giant TV was the standout but the remote was intermittently inoperable. New toilets were being installed - as evidenced by the pallet of them just outside the office - but one in my room was improperly installed and the lid would not stay up. As a man who prefers to use the toilet standing up at least some of the time, this was inconvenient. The floor around the base was also always damp, leading me to guess it was leaking. Hot water pressure and temperature were both next to non-existent in the shower but very hot and forceful in the sink. The sink drain plug had been removed but was on the counter. But, it didn’t seal when reinstalled. Only one bath towel was provided, but two hand towels and washcloths. I don’t mind re-using a towel, but if I’d had my wife with me, it would have necessitated a trip to get another towel. King bed was comfortable, but would have benefited from a third pillow as the two provide were queen size. The table, chairs and dresser were very old and worn and looked shabby. The small refrigerator worked well, but the freezer was so frozen over that little would fit in it. I had considered some ice cream from the nearby grocery store but glad I didn’t as it would been a waste. Dark wooden laminate flooring is attractive but needs deeper cleaning. The dark wood apparently hides it well - my socks not so much.
