Reviews

Summary: The hotel was quite basic and everything felt very old. It was clean, which we appreciated, but honestly, I expected more for the price. Maybe it’s just because it’s a very small town with limited service options. We stayed one night with our child on the way to New York — it was okay for a stopover. The breakfast was very minimal.
Catherine Jul 13, 2025 05:51:14 AM
Summary: The desk person ignored me while she was waiting in the phone and even after she was done. It took a very long time to check in and she got confused about the reservation and had to go find someone to ask what to do. Just being polite would have gone a long way but it was like I wasn’t even there. The bathroom shower was dirty also
Linda Jul 7, 2025 12:36:24 AM
Summary: Everything was wonderful except the dispensers in the shower were empty

Summary: The reservation process went smoothly as well as check-in. The front end staff were warm and welcoming, and explained all amenities clearly. The receptionist gave me the option to choose my room based on the floors. When I changed my mind about the room that I had initially chosen (didn’t like that the HVAC units were under the window), she accommodated me and assigned me to another room. The room was so comfortable and had a nice view. Cozy room! Nice, clean! Loved the hot shower as well. I will definitely book again in the future.

Summary: Great

Summary: Nice hotel, close to Main St. and Five Points. Good value and full breakfast.

Summary: Entrance was odd. It is in the same building as a Home2 so they shared a parking lot. The paint scheme showed the difference, but I still walked past the door. It is located right at the corner of the building on the parking lot side (not street side). Props to the young lady working the front desk. I was a single female checking in. She asked if I had a floor preference. She did NOT say my room number out loud (yay!) and made sure I had everything I needed before leaving the check in. Breakfast is available, but extra.

Summary: Staff were nice. Room was clean and the bed was comfortable enough. The only issue was that the shampoo, condiotioner and body wash were empty when we got to the room. The pool was cold.
Milena Apr 11, 2025 09:51:15 PM
Summary: Let me just start off with saying that five stars go to the person who checked us in. She was very nice, professional, and helpful. But I cannot say the same for the room. As soon as I walked in, I tripped on a paddle off water, right outside the bathroom, causing a nasty bruise to my arm. There was also water around the toilet. Shower was not clean. There was a yellow urine like stain in the corner and some hair. Room had a mildew smell. There was also a random scrunched up pillowcase on the nightstand. I will usually ask for another room, but since we were there for only one night and it was already very late, we decided not to. At checkout, I informed the person at the front desk about the situation. She did say sorry but that was it. Nothing resembling official. Not that I’m looking for handouts, but something should be offer the reconciliation. In regards to parking, I had to make my own spot. We did arrive late, but while looking for a parking space, I did notice a people parking there and walking to town. There were many cars without parking permit which all hotel patterns receive to park.

Summary: You pay close to $600 for two nights and then they charge you extra for Wi-Fi, parking and breakfast. And there was absolutely no water pressure in the shower.. The staff was very polite and helpful. The rooms were average and the location was great.
