There was a huge gap under and around the door. The bathroom was like a car wash, water sprayed everywhere. The heater couldn’t regulate the temperature of the room, likely from the door gap and the fact that it was in the 30’s at night. We were awake all night adjusting the temperature, which was stressful leading up to a heart procedure the next morning. Then I found a bed bug on the white linens. Took photos and a video and the staff still brushed it off as no big deal. We were booked for two days but I wanted to leave. They offered another room, but there was NO WAY I could sleep anywhere in that motel knowing they had bed bugs! They claimed their exterminator came (on a Sunday) and found no evidence. They refused to credit the unused night, because I prepaid with Expedia. It was a lame excuse of “policy” instead of doing the right thing. Why on earth would I want to stay there a second night?? GROSS. Don’t stay here unless you want to take some bugs home with you, be called a liar, and over pay for your room. Oh and the front desk, when writing the manager email down for me, gave me another customer’s private information. I saw the same room style was half the price I paid which is infuriating, but the carelessness of using a customer folio as scratch paper is downright despicable. Hello, have you heard of a shredder???

The room was lovely and clean. The front desk worker was friendly and helpful and gave me a location away from traffic noise, so the room was quiet and peaceful. I really liked that the hotel offered a hot tub, which was relaxing after a long drive. The only trouble we experienced was that we could hear repetitive water dripping from an overhanging roofline. There is a small architectural feature that was shedding moisture from the foggy evening directly onto the roof over our room. Looking up at this in the morning, we could see that this is a chronic problem, as there is some water damage and rot visible on the underside of the eaves over the doorway. The little cuppola-like feature may need some gutters to usher water away from that area. Other than that, it was a good stay and we would return again.

I paid go premium pool view and I was not in front of the window. All day and all night I heard the washing machine spin. Room 314 I think is right over the laundry room. Not good for paying extra to be in a premium pool view. Room smell like cigarettes. Bathroom door was hard to close and open. Pillows were small and lumpy. Bed was not comfortable. The room could use some updating. Carpets in the hall had a nasty smell and were dirty.
