Good location for our needs, but wouldn't stay again
Pros:

Convenient to where we needed to be.

Cons:

Basically did not have breakfast as advertised. No coffee. No milk. No juice. No cereal but no milk anyway, so the lack of cereal didn't matter. We were able to make waffles, nothing else.
Room and bathroom were ok clean but certainly need updating.

Its junk
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Literally everything. Place is disgustingly dirty, rooms are run down, the fridge and the air conditioner didn't work in my room. My bed had permanent grooves from ppl sleeping. Very uncomfortable. There was smashed dead spiders all over the bathroom walls and ceiling. With a living spider in the corner above the toilet of course. Im praying we didn't bring home bed bugs. Was a miserable night. Ill never stay here again.

Pros:

The bed was fairly comfortable

Cons:

When we opened the door to our room we were hit with an over powering smell of pinesol. The shower floor had mold around the edges. No plastic glasses in room.
The breakfast only had waffles, orange juice and coffee. No butter, milk, cereal.
No one was at the desk to talk with. We were able use a phone to ask for butter but was told that the supply truck didn't come.
The floors in the main breakfast areas were very dirty.
We booked two rooms for us and adult children and grandkids. Disappointing :(

Would stay again, location and price is hard to beat.
Pros:

The location is unbeatable. So close to Renfair you can't do better for the price. Everything was very clean. The breakfast was great and convenient when being away from home. Filling and tasteful.

Cons:

The toilet seat was broken and unsteady. The showerhead was so low it was shoulder height for the adult men. Beds weren't super comfortable when sleeping 2.
