Disliked: Amenities

The pool was closed. Expedia's site said it was closed during winter, but we visited in mid-June. The pool was covered by a tarp. Clearly the pool had not been open for a long, long time. That's unacceptable when traveling with two young children and specifically chose a hotel with a pool for entertainment purposes.

Stay with Dog

Quick overnight with our dog. Charged for the dog($65) extra - but front desk staff kindly offered us a first floor room - which made it so much easier with our dog. We also had a late bite at the bar- and it was solid. Very close to I-80- appreciated the convenient location. Older property but clean.

Felt a little sketchy when we arrived. Wound up moving our car to the front. Would of felt better if they had outside cameras maybe. Interior was not bad, had some nice remodeled sections. Bed was really comfortable, but our toilet seemed to run all night. I did tell the front desk about it before we left.

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort

The staff was very nice. It was a short stay, with a 9 pm check-in and checked out by 7:00 am. The room door had no chain. It appeared to have been removed. The peep hole on the door was gone and filled with caulk. Just made me a little uneasy bc it was just a mom and her 13 yr old daughter staying in the room. There were some stains on the sheets of one bed….not like fresh stains, but stains that did not come out in wash. You could tell all the bed linens were worn, sheets were a little dingy. Nothing was horrible, just made the room feel less clean. Not that we stared at the door, it just looked like it may have been broken into at one point prior to our stay. The breakfast was great and well supplied. Checkout was simple and quick.
