Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
After arriving at the property, and checking in, we canceled our reservation and asked for a refund (which was refused). Our rooms felt like we were in a basement, dank and musty smelling. There were large box fans in the hallway (don't know why). As we parked our vehicles on the rear side of the building a junker of a car backed into one of the adjacent stalls, and one guy went into the building while the other hung out smoking marijuana (with the motor on the vehicle still running). That's when we packed up and went back to the lobby (dark and unappealing) and checked out. We said we did not feel safe -- and found rooms at a much nicer hotel in town. The person at the front desk couldn't refund our money, so the manager called the next day. I told him that we did not feel safe, and therefore canceled our reservation. He simply told us that our reservations were non-refundable, and therefore he would not return our money.

We really like the hotel except there were constantly People in the Lobby just hanging out which made it very awkward. It is a railroad sponsored hotel and there were honestly a lot of sketch looking people always sitting around and there was never an employee around to help with anything

Poor guest service

Upon reaching out room, checked in a little after midnight as we were traveling through, the room next to ours must of had a pipe bust the entire hallway was soaked and several doors had towels in front of them. Walked into our room and it was really cold so we turned on the heat. The shower had a slow leak so my husband shut it off. The was a draft by the window only to find there was also a door there being covered by a curtain and the door was not all the shut and the was literally snow inside the room. The door would not shut all the way despite our best efforts. We went to sleep and got up the next morning at 7 to find there the shower would not turn on at all. Both my husband and my best friends husband tried to get it on. We got dressed and had to get on the road, prior to leaving I went once front desk to talk to them about all these issues. The front desk clerk stated well did you inform us about any of it. I said I am right now we were barely here for 6 hours and she well thanks I’ll let the manager know. For $130 stay I truly believe this was unacceptable response. I have worked in the hotel industry as a manger for 5 years and I know I should have been handled with better guest service.

Not as nice as it looked in photos. A bit bamboozled. My parents room has a door to the outside for some reason and the wind creates a high pitched noise. Quite surprised by this place.

Morning Noise

Place was clean and service was good. Just stayed on the first floor too close to where the breakfast buffet is. Lots of traffic and moving around starting at 6. My advice would be to ask for a room away from there if you’re on the first floor. 103
