I didn't like that the room I booked was not available. I wanted 2 queen beds in my room. That's what I booked. I got a king bed which was not acceptable. I had to sleep on the couch. Very disappointed in that.

once nice but on the decline

was staying just one night for a state middle school bowling tournament. Book this hotel based on recommendation of another parent who would stay there in previous years. Initially from the outside and inside everything looks pretty nice. But once you’re there, we found that the hotel is slowly going downhill the door to our bathroom wouldn’t latch. My son got stuck in the stairway because one of the stairway doors was broken. Another parent visiting for the weekend informed us at dinner that they had ants in their room. And a different family complained that their bathroom fan made a terrible screeching noise when they turned it On. The coffee maker in our room also didn’t work. also feels like they nickel and dime me to death with charging for breakfast and not even offering free coffee. They have a coffee machine which cost three dollars for just a basic coffee. I say take your three dollars and go across the street to Dunkin.this was a nice hotel but it seems like perhaps maintenance is not being maintained.
