Worst hotel I have stayed in. Smelled like curry and other spices. Didn’t update towels or toiletries at all. Very dirty.

Convenient by not great

About the only place in town to stay. Owners are not very friendly and you have to ring the bell to get front desk attention. We had to routinely ask for fresh towels. The breakfast consisted of coffee, juice, toast and cereal. When we decided to check out a day early, we were not refunded a nights stay or given a credit voucher.

Staff was pleasant but the property is in serious need of investment and care. This property is overpriced for the state of the amenities. Our room had one of the worst paint jobs I've seen, a sink that barely drained, lights that didn't work, and carpet in serious need of replacement. On the plus side, the beds were comfortable and clean.

Don’t waste your time or money

There was no front desk staff when I went to check in. There was a phone number to call and someone on the other end told me to take a room key of my choice from a basket at the end of the counter. Seriously? Three hours later the front desk staff asked me to come to the desk to register. I was very uncomfortable as the door did not have an extra lock, only the actual door lock. The room was freezing as the heat had not been turned on yet. When I went to check out, there was also no staff at the desk. Wanted a receipt and was unable to get one. The breakfast was a joke. A loaf of bread that anyone could put their hands in, a gallon of milk the was also a community gallon and a gallon of orange juice. One community jar of peanut butter and NOTHING else. I would NEVER Stay there again.
