Friendly staff. Older motel property that has had relatively recent renovations to make the facility more than acceptable. Still a few details in the rooms that need to be added, but the essentials are there.

The rooms were in need of upgrades and maintenance. If the nightly rates dropped to $100/night it would be priced correctly.

Motel rénové. Nous avions une chambre petite mais rénovée et très propre, par contre l'insonorisation laisse à désirer. Personnel très gentil et courtois. Piste cyclable près de l’hôtel. La seule chose, nous aurions aimé que la machine à glace fonctionne.

The floor felt really dirty, and it got worse with our stay. It made our feet black on our first night, even though we took our shoes off at the door. The bed was really comfortable at least, but the bathroom was worrisome. There were black spots along the ceiling, the fan wasn’t strong enough for the amount of steam that occurred from a shower. The shower curtain wasn’t long enough to keep the water in the tub area so the floor would get really wet. I noticed after the first shower that the steam made the walls look sweaty and a weird smell started to come from the bathroom after every shower. Overall, the room met our needs, but we couldn’t shower with the door closed and had to leave the fan on even if it was cold outside or the smell would get too strong.

Sketchy at best… room smelled like an ashtray.. to the point that everything I brought (clothes, shoes, etc. smelled like cigarettes) questionable people in and out slamming hotel room doors, car doors all night long. Heavy police presence. No safety latch on door, just the turn lock. Definitely do no recommend this inn.

Staff was a definite plus. The condition of the room was also most nice. There were a couple of minor flaws (which I did not report because I left when nobody was available: The tv remote had an issue with the battery cover (it had slightly broken, and didn’t properly close but still functioned fine) The closet had gotten its hangers stolen by presumably prior guests (I had brought a couple of hangars with me and didn’t need any more). The shower was particularly nice and the bed was quite wonderful; everything was clean and the room was well-equipped in all particulars. I had decided to depart earlier than planned (having mostly finished what might have been four days, almost on the first day - before I had actually checked in! The manager was extremely accommodating and I was permitted to change from four nights, down to two! I saved half of the anticipated charges, with no penalty and minimal effort. I am delighted with my entire trip (except the horrible traffic I faced both ways when passing near New York City and parts of Connecticut).

Bait and switch!! The room shown on the app is nothing like the Rome I got. It was supposed to have a small kitchen area with a stove top, apartment size refrigerator and a microwave. I purchased food to cook only to find myself in a room with no stove and a tiny refrigerator that couldn't hold what I had planned to cook but now couldn't. I spoke to the person at the desk and he just smiled and said "that's what they had".

I would rate this place horrible. They messed up my reservation, and then when I tried to call, nobody answered, and then when I finally got somebody on the day, I was supposed to be checking out, which I never checked in to begin with was very rude and told me there’s nothing he can do that. They took my money anyway And charged me for not even being there. They are disgusting and rude and then when I told them they were thief. He hung up in my face.

I called ahead to confirm my reservation and provided my confirmation number. I was told they couldn’t find the reservation but that I could still come since they had rooms available. When I arrived, they said they hadn't received any confirmation from Expedia, but they went ahead and gave me a room anyway—without asking for payment. It felt like they may have given away my original room and placed me in one that hadn’t been used in a long time. I wasn’t happy with how the situation was handled, but at least I had a place to sleep.
