Staff was friendly and attentive. Room was large. 1) I have never used such thin towels 2) Some of the fixtures were not great - the faucet handle came off in my hand, bureau was missing a drawer tront, sheets were stained 3) i chose this hotel because it offered breakfast. I had a choice of corn flakes, a banana or coffee.

Baxter inn was a good “just for the night” hotel idk if i would stay here for longer. It had a strange smell. Almost like this place has been kept in a bottle type of smell. The sheets did have some stains on them. The shower was nice! I enjoyed the shower. Parking was easy and it was easy to find. The staff was very friendly

Terrible hotel

this hotel is so uncomfortable, in room there is only 1 electric outlet so when I complain they provide 1 extension cord, also there isn't hair dryer, the bathing towel is insufficient, the blanket is plastic so doesn't soft, there isn't sugar for coffee, only there are artificial sugar, in brief this is the worst hotel I have been stayed
