Room originally didn’t have enough heat right before a snowstorm and the front desk switched our room and helped us move our belongings. She was kind and very helpful. Just the rule of too much stuff being brought in the room was something I wasn’t used to. We are relocating from another state so we did have luggage and it was 3 of us. Other than that and the bed was pretty hard. Overall decent space.

Zero to none toilet paper. The first impression is the musty, mildewy, wet smell. Bed sheets had stains but smelled clean. Old decor. You get want you pay for.

Not the best area. Didn't feel that safe but the room was clean and did not smell. Bed was not uncomfortable. No hot water at first for the shower but waited ten minutes and it did get hot.

Beside the price and the comfy bed there is no other good thing I can say about this hotel. Everything was completely run down. The room smelt so moldy the second we opened the door. And it was definitely not clean when we arrived. Sure the beds were made, but there were crumbs left on the rug, cobwebs in the corner in the bathroom & even broken price tag plastics left on the nightstand. I think the picture of how ancient the alarm clock was will tell it all!!
