This place was like a scene out of The Walking Dead. My room smelled like a stripper pole, and when I woke up in the morning, I could barely breathe. Do not stay at this hell hole the windows wouldn’t open and there was garbage all around the property.

There's a reason it shows up as the least expensive motel in the area. The long term residents at the motel add to the ambience of the late night arguing. Apparently the room on my left was mad at the room in my right. Fortunately the room had 2 beds with an extra set of blankets since the heater thermostat must have been there for decorative purposes only. And folks in Southern Vermont must like wet hair since the provided, wall-mounted hair dryer did not reach the wall outlet - assuming that you wanted to plug it in. The plastic sheets on the matress was an interesting feature. Not sure why, unless they help keep any potential bugs away. Stay if you must, but you're forewarned not to have high expectations.

Website says three dogs are allowed and service dogs are welcomed free. Was traveling with one other person and three registered service animals and was denied service due to animals. Volunteered to pay fee for one since it's my daughter's dog and she wasn't with me but was denied service unless I showed by dogs registrations. I explained what the dogs do for us and why but refused to show registration since they can't legally ask for it. We were still denied

The only decent thing was that it was clean. Broken doors, broken remote, broken lamp, was frightening pulling in with people that seemed to be just hanging out. Maybe they lived there in a room. All kinds of what appeared to be junk all around run down buildings.

Garbage worst place no heat
The staff shouted at paying costumers. The room had no heat or hot water in December. The place was filthy. It’s unbelievable they can get away with not even providing heat in winter for days at a time.

Not a 24 hour front desk as shown on listing. Staff finally opened door after half hour. Then couldn’t find key, or room available. If you want cheap digs and arrive during the day you will probably be fine though. Just don’t show up after midnight.

I cannot name even one thing I liked about this place but, I can give many reasons why I did not. It was late when I arrived or I would not have even stayed one night. I tried to call the "front desk" and there was no answer. I wanted to ask for another room but could not get anyone to talk to. The bed, though I do think it was clean, was lop sided. I had to push myself up against the backside and use pillows to not fall out of the bed. I had reserved one queen bed and was in a room with two. I tried to call the front with the phone on the nightstand but it didn't work and had to use my cell. I looked to see if it was unplugged and pulled the night stand out. I pushed it back quickly afraid of what may be there. I took pictures of the place to show my credit card company if there is a battle. When I went to the office the next morning at 8:00 AM the same woman came to the door in her nightgown. When I asked why she didn't call me back she said she didn't get a call and that it was off duty. I asked if she had another room and she did not. I then said I was leaving and I want the money back for the room, that it was nasty and the bed nearly put me on the floor. The woman assured me that she would take care of it. I called the next evening to ask about the money and she said she had been too busy, that she would take care of it soon. I called on Monday and again there is no answer. This place and the service is disgusting and should never be allowed to be rented out.

The hotel was for homeless people they said they had no reservations for us because of COVID the homeless were staying there. The person at the desk sounded like she was drunk and she was very rude. We had to drive hour and half to find somewhere else to stay. I want my money back
