Fine for an overnight stay.

Decent hotel with easy access to I- 81. My only gripe is that the tub in our room had a large stain in it.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The first room we were in appeared to be clean and made up, but when we went to pull the covers to sleep, there were hairs in the sheets and the sheets were wrinkled in the shape of a person who had obviously slept there. In the second room they moved us to, they gave keys to a another person checking in so as we were getting ready, another person try to enter the room with a key. This happened TWICE in this second room. No matter where anyone travels to safety and cleanliness is a non-negotiable expectation of a hotel room.
