Categories

Cleanliness
4
Multiple reports of bugs (in room and bed), stains on mattresses, musty smells, dirty pool and unclean hallways — overall cleanliness is notably poor.
Service
10
Staff were repeatedly described as friendly and helpful in several reviews; there are isolated complaints about customer service and language barriers, but the prevailing sentiment about staff interactions is positive.
Location
9
Many guests praised the location (close to highway, ferry, and local dining); one review noted it was far from everything, but overall location is considered a strong point.
Room Quality
4.5
Rooms frequently described as outdated: creaky/hard beds, stains, sink/drain issues, cracks and debris on walls, and insect presence — room condition is below average.
Amenities
7
Amenities are mixed: useful features like parking suitable for trailers and self-service laundry were appreciated, but the pool was dirty/foamy and some basics (pool maintenance, updated facilities) are lacking.
Value for Money
5.5
Several guests felt the price did not match the quality (comments that it felt like a cheap motel and not worth the high price), though some noted the hotel can be cheaper than alternatives.
Food and Beverage
4.5
Breakfast received many negative remarks — described as substandard, mostly breads and small yogurts, poor variety and quality; one guest called it the worst breakfast in their history of stays.
Overall Experience
7.5
Mixed overall: strong positives for staff and convenient location, but significant negatives around cleanliness, room condition, and breakfast make the overall stay only moderately satisfactory for many guests.

Pros:

We found two bugs in our room and the beds were super creaky. There was also a gap in the door and the frame so light and noise came through.

Only if I had to…
Pros:

The location was perfect for me.

Cons:

Honestly, it needs a refresh. It smells odd and there are stains where there shouldn’t be stains. The breakfast was substandard.

Esperava mais pelo valor cobrado
Pros:

Estacionamento era bom

Cons:

Hotel muito desorganizado, quando vc chega ao lugar vc se assusta! Muita gente fica na secretaria do hotel conversando oque atrapalha vc dormir nos quartos ! O café da manhã é bem pobre, não tem muitas opções de comida! A localização é longe de tudo

Read through it. Not expecting 5 stars but really not worth it.
Pros:

The location was good.

Cons:

There were bugs, drain flies, and slugs inside my room. I kept getting harassed by a woman doing drugs in the parking lot. I told staff about it they said that happens sometimes. Not worth the high price charged. More comparable to a cheap sketchy motel in a bad neighborhood then what is said to be affiliated w Wyhdam!

Never again
Pros:

It did not have enough towels and when we called down to let them know, we had to go pick-up the towels ourselves. The bed spread was not clean at all.

Cons:

You could also use someone there that speaks English as a first language.

it was ok. Parthenon restaurant in town was excellent except the pie it was very old and unedible.
Pros:

My husband always checks out the mattress. this mattress had a huge stain on it. The management put us in a different room.

Perfect place for a night on the road!
Pros:

Great place to stay one night while on the road. Easy access to I-95. Parking lot has spaces for those pulling trailers. Great diner just up the hill. Mattresses are really comfortable. Self service laundry machines were great.

Cons:

Free breakfast was mostly just breads and little yogurts.
