Pros:

Good place to stay for a low cost. Room was clean and the staff were friendly, but there was a strong smell of cigarette smoke throughout the whole building, including the room. For the price, not a bad place to stay though.

Pros:

Parking was fine. No kitchen, furniture and linen were dirty, hallway stunk of cigarette smoke, and doors were slamming all throughout the night.

Overnight trip
Pros:

It's a nice area, and close to Darian Lake. I'd stay there again.

Pros:

This is a good little stop if you’re visiting for a concert or event at Darien Center. It’s obviously old and a little worn out, but for the price it’s clean and safe. There’s a Denny’s across the street, a Subway, and stop truck stops for food within walking distance. It’s not fancy, but the staff is AMAZING. They are extremely helpful and a pleasure to be around. If you need a clean, safe place to stay, you can confidently book this.

Pros:

Everything looked clean - that being said my feet bottoms got really dirty. When we left there were what looked like clean sheets on the floor marking the next room to be made up - gave me an ick factor.

Staff was nice and check in easy. Wish there was shower gel as well, nice bottles of shampoo and conditioner included with the room.

Pros:

The check in was surprising in that they charge $30 for insedentals and say they will refund after you leave. What is that about? Also only stairs and there is smoking allowed. On the good side the room was very nice tho the bathroom tyb had hair in it everything else was ok

Pros:

Room was more updated then outside of building. Bed and bathroom were clean but there was a musty smell in the entire room. Cobwebs in the corners. It was good enough for 1 night but I wouldn't stay there for any extended period of time. They did allow our dogs to travel with us which was really convenient for us.

Pros:

Pros: Quiet, convienient, really comfy bed.

Cons: Outdated, smelled strongly of smoke despite being non smoking, not very hot water.

Fine for a night's stay, just not a lot to rave about. Room was clean, except for the string odor of cigarette.
