Toilet was broken in the room, and the options were use the hallway toilet, or move to a room with one bed. That said, Ive stayed here before and have had no problems.

This was an interesting stay. First night they were fixing the overhead lights in the parking lot. The elevator was out from the second night through the third day. The fire alarm went off for 30 minutes the evening of the fourth day. I thought the staff handled all of these issues well.

The staff was friendly and attentive. The facility is updated and maintained well. Our room was clean and spacious. It’s location is convenient because it’s right off the highway. There's a gas station across the street. It's convenient and safe to get something quickly from there.

Access to the front desk required staff to let you in or to already have a room key. It needs updating for sure but was overall okay. There were restaurants in walking distance so that was good.

The bedsheets were wrinkled. While checking the corners of the bedding there was blood stains on the fitted sheets with lots of dirt, dust balls and hair. Bathroom floor was dirty. Everything was old looking and needing updated. Breakfast area was too small for the amount of people staying; food was very limited and not refilled in a timely manner. I would never recommend using this hotel line to anyone and will never book again going forward.

The staff was very friendly and kind. The rooms were super clean. I always clean before we settle in and it is always so disgusting to see how filthy my paper towels are, this room was very clean. The only reason I cannot rate it well is the noise. Our neighbors were not noisy people, but you could hear absolutely everything, every time they shut their bathroom door, the amoire, when they put something down on the desk.

4 night stay, room 208, would definitely stay there again. Staff- friendly, professional, conversational, personable Room- I had a studio w a sofa-bed available (didn't use). Everything was pretty much perfect. Loved the window seat Bed - comfy Bathroom - clean, good water pressure Wi Fi - meh. Which seems to be the norm at hotels. Good enough for FB, not great for streaming. TV - HBO and ...was it Starz? Air Conditioning - Didn't get super chill, even when set in low 60s (maybe due to the hellish outside temps that week?) Had a vague mildew smell when it first kicked in.

Have stayed at this Microtel before and it is the best! Great rooms. excellent breakfast and super-friendly staff. The area is quiet and safe with dining options literally right next door. Movie theater within walking distance. The star of the show is Joey, front desk. This gentleman has a friendly yet professional approach to each and every guest he comes into contact with. He is different than most people his age because he truly cares. I travel three to four months out of the year and this is difficult to find. Keep up the good work Microtel and give Joey a raise as a professional with his skill-set deserves it!

Tried the hair dryer. No air blew out. It got super hot and glowed red. Smelled like an electrical fire. Told front desk staff member who was in a room behind the front desk. He didn’t even get up to greet me. Said he didn’t t have replacements and didn’t even know they had hair dryers.

The room smelled. My son was due to arrive 15 minutes after I checked in. I told the staff person at the desk. He went on break. The replacement was unaware that my son was coming. Instead of calling my room to see if my son could come up, he just refused to let him in. My son had to wait in the lobby for 30 minutes until the original desk clerk came back. Inexcusable!

This place isnt in any residential area, the area feels like you just got off the interstate in a random town and theres a gas station, hotel, restaurant all on one square block. Thats exactly this area. Quiet clean and simple, the area looks and feels safe.

We had the most wonderful stay at this location! We didn’t want to leave! We especially enjoyed the free breakfast and the 24 hour coffee bar. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I especially want to compliment Chatey, the assistant general manager. She was fantastic!! She made sure that the breakfast area was spotless every morning and kept everything refilled. She works very hard and is truly an asset to your company!

We were impressed with the courtesy of the staff. There were high school boys there for the hockey tournament and she said if they were loud, just call the front desk. They were quiet and we never heard any noise. Breakfast was very good and they had a good variety of food. Room was clean and comfortable. Sidewalks were shoveled so they were safe.
