The room was neat and clean, but the price was kind of high.
Pros:

Breakfast wasn’t offered, only coffee. I didn’t have any. I went out for breakfast. The location was ok. Not much scenery.

Cons:

There was no decor in the room.

I have come here often and on for more than 20 years it will be the last time to this location
Pros:

No breakfast offered

Cons:

A shower that would work . We wanted a king size bed in a quiet area away from Highway noise and the parked running diesel truck parking. We had to pay more for two what were the size of the beds called and they weren’t queens double beds that needed new mattress. Rm 233.

I paid for my stay caused nobody any trouble and this manager or owner had some delusion.
Pros:

I liked that it was quiet.

Cons:

The owner called the police to have me removed dor no reason tgat he could articulate. The police said that when I went for a refund they would verify I did nothing wrong.

Pros:

No breakfast available.

Cons:

Size of the bathroom. Also, for safety, hand rail should be installed in the tub area to protect especially from falls. Tub is slippery.

Better than expected and a good value
Pros:

The value. It was better than i expected. I usually pay more for a more upscale hotel, but basically had to stay here. It met my requirements and I have no complaints.

Cons:

It was damp since it was a classic August day with high humidity and the AC was not on when we checked in. It never really caught up since we were only there from 1am to 8am. There was also a strong smell of cigarettes (or maybe Canadian wildfires from a few weeks back).

Awful the last day he wanted me to leave and would not refund that night I feel that was unacceptabl
Pros:

Location was nice.

Cons:

The owner/manager was yelling at me and called the police for nothing he could articulate that I did. He was angry that my parents and friends from out of town visited. The police saw nothing wrong with the room or myself and my visitors. There was no mess or broken things it was perfectly clean and quiet.

Cons:

The heating unit was a bit weak. It was very cold the night I stayed so I’m understanding of that but the heating unit could not heat up the room sufficiently. Other then that everything else was great!
