This property was so disgusting! My daughter and I watched a drug deal on our way to the room. Our room was filthy!! There were dead bugs, the sheets were not clean, the shower had someone else’s hair in the tub on the floor in multiple places, the door handle to the bathroom was broken, and I could hear our neighboring room without even trying, My daughter and I did not stay longer than 5 minutes before checking out. We did not feel safe or comfortable to sleep whatsoever.

It was okay up until I told him I wanted to stay over plus I supposed to have a free night that I thought they would honor but they would charge me $20 late fee for being late to pay they said. And the time before that when I stayed it snowed and they made me leave had to walk home the road conditions were bad.

Once we arrived, the room we had reserved was not clean. However, MARIA jumped right in and had it ready while we got a bite to eat. The room was clean and all i really saw was a need to be painted and bathtub didn't drain very well. Great place to stay with my dog. Has good area to walk and a small pin w/ shelter so one can sit at the picnic table on a sunny day and watch their dog play. For the price, we'll return.

I changed rooms three times. First room had mold on the walls. Second room had critters and no hot water or phone; no suitcase rack. A place for hangers but no hangers. Third room had critters too. And later find we had no phone. It had a suitcase rack. No place for hangers and no door hooks for robes or towels. The refridgerator worked great on the highest setting. The cold breakfast was not surprising at all. I saw no cream cheese for the offered bagels. You have to use a key to get into the cateria. There was nothing HOT about breakfast other than some microwaveable oatmeal and instant grits ot some toast. The guest laundry room was unavailable.That's a two hour slot for $7. Why wasn't there any cable? I like the easy accessible to my car, the area for my dog to walk.
