Be prepared

Room/bathroom needed a paint job. Not sure the last time the floor was vacuumed. The free breakfast was a joke. No toast/beagles anywhere and was not open at the correct time. Coffee in the front entrance was cold

Pool and hot tub and not working. We were told at check-in, super disappointed. We’re moving across country and we all needed a hot tub. Breakfast was good. Room was good and clean. Worth the money, but we were really ticked off because there were other hotels we could have booked at if they would have updated their listing saying there wasn’t a pool or hot tub. Unfortunately, we will now need to call each property to check before we book.

Old and tired interior and rooms.

The first room had a toilet that did not work. I doubt I was the first one to report this however this was the room I was given. I did move to a new room. The hotel looks worn and sad and I was disappointed as I have stayed at other Country Inn hotels and they were fine. This is a franchise hotel and it showed as one, old carpet and the walls could use new paint. The office chair was very worn and the fake leather was worn away. I doubt a thrift store would accept the office chairs.

This property was very quiet and was clean as well. Only issue was the complimentary breakfast only seemed to have one person working it and so things were not restocked very quickly so had to wait on food items.

Friendly staff, clean. The only inconveniences were lack of towels in the pool, and no juices at breakfast. The food was hot, and had good flavor. Beds were comfortable.

Hotel room was your average hotel room. Desk chair leather was peeling off and looked atrocious. Fridge wasn’t very cold and cabinets to fridge and microwave wouldn’t stay closed which caused a problem with our 2 year old closing and getting hit in the face. Hair dryer was broken and could t be used. Breakfast was disappointing. We arrived at breakfast 45min after opening and there were 5 plates available. No juice or water because the machine was broken so only option to drink was coffee or tea. Asked receptionist and was told it was just broken and not given any other alternative. The waffle mixture was almost empty so had to stand there forever trying to get the cup full and once made did not taste good. Sugar free syrup was empty. 3 options for cereal and one of them was mixed with 2 different kinds. Lots of other options for hotels in the area so will not be staying here again. Now have to go find breakfast elsewhere at an extra expense. Would not recommend for families.

Extremely disappointed

EXTREMELY overpriced for the room. The tub was disgusting and that was one of the reasons we chose the room we did. The chairs in the room had stains. The floor in the bathroom looked dirty like it hadn’t been cleaned. The staff had an attitude every time I asked a question (another pillow). Got an attitude when I asked for a cup for tea, and brought up that the “HOT WATER” was ice cold. I had stayed here before and I thought it would be a good choice but after this weekend I don’t want to go back.
