The front desk clerk was very kind and personable. Check in was easy and the hotel looked nice from the outside. Inside it smelled like old cigarette smoke and the room was very dingy. I know we stayed in a pet room but there were pet stains on the carpet, my comforter which was the only blanket had crusty brown stain on it and the bathroom had A LOT of hair in the tub. On the floor there was a used elastic hair tie that was not mine. It was too late to get a different hotel or we would not have stayed

The room was not as described in many ways; The deluxe room write up stated it had a fireplace and separate sitting area and that all rooms are oversized, while in fact there was no fireplace, no separate sitting area, and only an average sized room with one chair at the desk. The carpets were dirty and stained, the tv was small, the room was dark with burnt out bulbs, there were stains on the wall by the bathroom mirror. Breakfast was ok, but no fruit and creamer for coffee was powdered.

The property was clean but dated. The furniture was old, the wood furniture was scratched up and the upholstery frayed. The bed was like sleeping on a bean bag it was so soft. The attendants were polite when spoken to but were not warm and friendly as one would expect someone to be in the hospitality industry. The free breakfast was less than mediocre. The coffee pot in the room was an 8c drip and it and what was offered in the lobby was like dishwater. I don't know what their normal clientele is but there were signs everywhere that in addition to the refundable $100.00 damage deposit charged at check in, there would be an additional charge of $250.00 for 'this type of stain, this type of tear, etc'. As well as a written lengthy explanation of why there is no daily housekeeping offered other than change of towels and trash removal. We were happy enough and enjoyed our outings , but we wouldn't stay here again if in the area.

Old property - looks like grandma's circa 1960 as evidenced by turquoise bathtub anf very old furnishings. Shabby curtains falling off, huge wooden dowell in slider. Bathroom door so warped it wouldn't close. Big stains on carpet. Charged upgrade to switch to ground floor room due to wounded knee and no elevator, and not informed of charge until checkout by VERY brusque desk clerk. Also charged a $10 "Daily Processing Fee" whatever that is!!!
