The pool was stagnant, dirt piling on the bottom. A flim and foating, looked like peaces of tissue across the top of the water. No filtration, no water moving. Chose this place because of the pool. Very disappointing. The property had broken chairs around it and in disrepair. We did like our room. It was a suite with a jacuzzi. In the office building seperate from the hotel rooms, greatfully.

The beds were nice, the room was nice enough. The room could definitely use detail cleaning and some minor repairs. The pool was freezing cold but in good condition. Breakfast was okay but lacking in some items (no fruit and no eggs or meats). It did have essentials...coffee, cereal, pancakes, yogurt and oatmeal. The staff was nice and friendly. Would stay again.

Property was very quiet and located in a very convenient area. There was decent parking. Beds were ok, pillows TERRIBLE. Tv would freeze a lot. Rooms were very outdated, but for someplace to sleep it worked. Definitely not the cleanest - found bottles under bed, hair in bathroom, dirty hairdryer, etc. Bedding was clean. Breakfast was not good - same exact sad breakfast every morning - zero variety and hours were terrible. Stale bread and muffins or frozen pancakes. And community pb, cream cheese, jelly? Kind of gross. Pool was sketchy. Staff was ok. Zero housekeeping - no taking of garbage or new towels our entire stay.

Other than the retired bikers that decided to party in the parking lot until midnight (which was not the hotel’s fault as they, too, were guests), everything was good. I’d stay here again as long as The Geritol’s Angels weren’t booked here again at the same time.

Price quote for pet differed.
I called ahead an got a price for having my dog with me. When i arrived I was quoted a totally different price. Everything else was great except the bathroom fan didn't work making everything damp and steamy.

It was nice and easy to book, the staff was all amazing super friendly and easy to work with. The only thing I could say I had an issue with was the room while being presentable it was dusty and had a little bit of an older Oder but wasn’t terrible. I appreciate all the staff for being so helpful to us

Breakfast is decent, muffins, bagels, cereal, pancakes, nothing huge but not bad for the hotel price. Rooms are a little older looking but not bad. Pool was clean but cold. I would stay again without hesitation.

Location is nice, but the cleanliness of the rooms needs improvement. Our room the bathroom area smelled of urine. Maintenance of the rooms needs improvement as well (loose plugs, bathroom vent needs cleaning, rugs need to be deep cleaned, our room door had a gap around it). Will not be staying there in the future.
