I had a terrible experience with the front desk clerk at check-in. (She) was very rude, unpleasant and forceful! I was tempted to not check-in and leave to find another hotel/motel in the area, even if I had to pay more. I would suggest you find another location!!!!!

The room I was in the toilet had no water, turn out it was leaking so the owners/maintenance staff had turned it off to prevent water loss. I turned it on, problem solved after using the toilet. Then I wake up at night and there is water in the floor. The place advertised as having included breakfast when I checked in late night, the desk person told me they stopped breakfast since Jan. I paid for this when booking as my child as an early morning competition and we needed to be out. So it would be good if Expedia which has been nice about advertising refunds me for the breakfast that I had to grab outside. I think that is a fair ask? what do you think? BTW I was in room 204 just so you can verify my comments.

Front desk required a SURPRISE DEPOSIT OF $50! Would not let me check in without paying it. This was not stated in any place when I booked on the app. Desk clerk was shady saying “don’t break stuff get money back.”. Next morning I went to inspect the room with him not giving anyone a $50 tip in the guise of a security deposit.

If it were not for the bed bugs on the pillow case we would have looked past the cigarette burn holes in the comforters and stains on the sheets. It was “ok” as far as cleanliness goes considering what you’re paying. Im not sure how to describe the smell, but it was strong, of maybe a cleaning solution or bug spray, not sure. Staff was friendly enough but gave a slight attitude when we showed them the video of the bed bugs. They asked if we wanted another room, but obviously we weren’t taking any chances of getting bitten by bed bugs or our belongings infested. We left immediately and went elsewhere. Even though it says nonrefundable I’m hoping a refund is issued for this unfortunate inconvenience.

Room smelled like weed, cigarette burns in bedding, laundry pictured far from many rooms, dirty bathroom, couldn't get extra towels, also 50$ fee due at check in not stated on any site, can't get a receipt for that, even after asking several times, they will give it back after they check your room at checkout and at their discretion. We ended up checking out within an hour because of conditions.

daughter and i traveled to PA for work. hotel was cheapest on expedia. key card never worked, if both of us left room it meant walking in cold to front desk to hv keycard renewed. we were given rooms which already had someone staying inside it or just leaving it. luggage was on bed, bags of trash was on floor. two instances of front desk bamming on door, trying to get into room, not knowing we’ve paid for week stay or added days online, meant waking daughter and me out sleep after i’ve worked night shift. there was no toilet cover to seat so setting anything on toilet tanks lid was at own risk. some random lady asked if me and daughter would come chill in her room so she could hv excuse to get rid of guy in there. i mentioned leaving, was told manager would refund which was lie! we lost 6 days of money when leaving
