When we got to our room it appeared as if whoever cleaned it got halfway done and called it quits. Trash was still in the trash cans and someone’s used towels were in our bathroom. I did like the fact it was so close to the Main Street where everything was at definitely a very walkable location. All in all the Gillette was a decent stay with comfortable beds and friendly staff, just would’ve wished our room would’ve been a little more clean
