Less than impressed.

The room was missing furniture. There was no chair or table. It felt like half of it was empty. We played cards on the nightstand we moved to double as a table. It was the king suite with the tub. Definitely was not imprressed, kinda disappointing.

This property advertises as "pet friendly" but it is not ! When I checked in I was informed that it was a $ 40 a NIGHT per pet fee. I stay with pets all of the time and have never had such an expensive fee. The women at the desk then told me to make sure my dogs never bark barking is not permitted! The pet fee is hidden in the fine print on their ad. When checking out they refused to give me a printed receipt . I would not recoms staying here

Disliked: Staff & service
The younger girl at the desk was wonderful. The manager and other lady there have some scam ring going on there. I had book a room for 3 nights through Expedia. After 1 night there I went back to my room and the key wasn’t working. I went downstairs and they said I was suppose to have checked out. I said no and showed them my Expedia email. Which they bushed off and said they only had 1 room left and I panicked and paid for another two nights. What should have happened after I said is there something wrong with your system with my phone still showing the email oh let me call Expedia. Which is not what happened I had to call expedia and was told they needed to call them. They eventually did and told me I was right I did have the room booked for three nights. After being told I would get my refund my credit card company started flagging stuff. So I had to cancel my card and get a new one. The morning of check out they left a charge so that way I couldn’t leave until it was paid. Trying to get more money out of me. The girl that was there that morning was wonderful she told me that the computer said my room was booked for 3 nights and that she wasn’t sure why they made me buy 2 nights. She also said not sure why they are charging any extra fee. She fixed everything and I was able to leave without paying for that random fee. I was also not the only person getting scammed

I booked this hotel for 1 night due to it having "airport shuttle" service and i asked about it as soon as i checked in and was told by a very rude older lady named "G" that they don't have one for the next morning. She told me i was supposed to book that service 24 hours before even checking in. When i asked her her name she told me it was Sara but her name tag started with "G". There were also 2 dead cockroaches on the window sill in side the room and 18-20 live ones on the outside of the window. I went to the front to tell them and "G" just looked at me and didn't move or respond. Never sent anyone to my room or offered a different one. Absolute worst experience ever.

Overall very good

Check-in was easy and staff pleasant. Parking plentiful. Quiet given proximity to the thruway. Full breakfast , if somewhat uninspiring (Two of three days I had breakfast at hotel it wasvthec same cheese omelettes and skinless sausage links. Both could have been warmer). Elevator had a funky smell to it

The room had water stains on the ceiling, stains on the sheets, beds were hard. Blowdryer did not work in my room and i went down the hall to my brothers room and his was not working also, they told us they had no extras to replace them. Coffe is only availabil during breakfast hours. My nephews volleyball team blocked off rooms for a tournament at the fairgrounds but the night before the tournament they were trying to charge everyone an extra $90 a night and break contract so last minute families had to find other arrangements.
