Everything was great except for the pool that was supposed to be heated. It was broken & that was the main reason we went there. They did however have a heated pool to use accross the street at another hotel. They should have let people know before booking. Staff were all very nice & the restaurant was delicious!

Steer clear!!Unfriendly check in. Smelled bad in lobby. No sign that the pool was out of service. When I asked he told me I could go swim at the Hampton Inn. 4.00 for a 16 oz soda they clearly bought at Costco. Shower didn’t work well. It was run down. The only redeeming quality was the breakfast and the lady running it. Other than that this hotel was terrible. Independent run should not mean you do no hotel maintenance and expect to have happy guest. Honestly I understand that you clearly cut cost at all possible but your hotel is run down and this is where I choose to take my family.

We had to turn on the heat in our room upon entry, there had been below zero temperatures so the room was freezing. Although the thermostat was at 86 degrees, the room never heated up, as the heater was blowing slightly warm air. We went out to dinner and the show we were in town for thinking it may just take some time to heat up. I did let the front desk know of the issue, and they said they would have maintenance look at the heater while we were out. Upon return, the room was still cold. We had to take the blankets off the other queen bed and the extra one from the closet to be warm overnight. I dared not take a shower in the morning as the bathroom was too cold. We chose this hotel because my husband has some anxiety about feeling trapped in, in larger hotels, and this one only had two floors and access to the outside from the room. The extra amenities such as the pool and breakfast made it ideal for us as well. We did not get to enjoy the pool, as we did not want to go back to a cold room in wet bathing suits, but the breakfast was very nice. It was kept very clean and well stocked. Overall, this was a place I would stay again if it weren’t for the freezing room.

The room had garbage on the side by the refrigerator. There was no cover on the lamp's electrical outlet. The bathroom sink was clogged. The security bolt on the door was broken. The swimming pool was 50 degrees. The gym had missing weights and only one mat which was on the floor and walked on. It had not been straightened or cleaned in the 20 hours I was there. I have an ADA service dog and I was told I could take breakfast but could not eat in the dining room with my dog.
