A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“The inside over all was pretty nice for the price and location near the mall and major parts of town and the highway are also pretty good. The outside of the building on the other hand is another story with rusty streaks outside in several places mainly on either side of the main entrance. The other thing is the parking lot with no discernible lines for parking leading to people parking in such a way as to not always have enough parking to include when larger vehicles with trailers or larger pickup trucks taking up what would normally be 1.5 and even 2 normal parking spots and more for those when they park sideways. There isn’t any markings either as to where not to park right in front of the main entrance to ensure people don’t park in front of the door or block/park partially inside the handicap parking spots. In the winter time good luck as it is seldomly cleared completely in any way to see the road until the snow melts otherwise being stuck trying to guess where the parking spots are at and hoping you have enough traction to drive into or out of the parking lot. At least they ensure to change out the bulbs on the parking lights when they go out and the outside lights of the building itself.”
“What a great place. Great location and warm entrance. We had reservations for the night while in town but with some snow coming we wanted to head home and not drive in it the next day. It was 5:00 pm and cancel time was long gone. However, they were so awesome and gave me a full refund and were so pleasant and accommodating. Love to see great customer service when things come up like weather. We will definitely be staying here anytime we are in town and appreciate the understanding and cooperation even when the did not have too. A plus from me !!”
“The rooms are spacious and clean. Comfortable beds, full size refrigerator/freezer, stove top with 2 electric burners, full sized under counter dishwasher, sink and microwave. Quiet rooms nice breakfast area. Great value with very affordable rates. Clinique, Holly and Maddy are wonderful and went above and beyond to accommodate me.”
