Categories

Cleanliness
6.7
Mostly reported as clean (many reviewers said rooms were clean), but several comments noted unclean areas (bugged windows, spots, a view of the dumpster) and a marijuana smell on arrival, so cleanliness is mixed.
Service
6.9
Staff received praise in some reviews (nice staff, helpful once TV issue resolved), but there are also reports of front desk unhelpfulness (Wi‑Fi issue, towel shortage, billing/reservation double-charge), yielding slightly above-average but inconsistent service.
Location
8
Multiple reviewers praised the location (close to highway, downtown and attractions like the National D‑Day Memorial and Peaks of Otter), so location is a strong positive.
Room Quality
6.5
Beds and pillows are often described as comfortable and rooms as adequate, but several notes mention plain/older rooms, small size for some rooms, and need for refresh in places.
Amenities
6
Amenities are mixed: positives include microwave, fridge, free parking and waffle machine; negatives include no elevator/no accessible options, occasional TV/Wi‑Fi failures and limited onsite dining options.
Value for Money
7.5
Many reviewers called it good value and reasonable for the price, though a few felt it was slightly overpriced; overall value is positive.
Food and Beverage
5.8
Breakfast reports are inconsistent: some enjoyed the waffles and selection, but many described breakfast as extremely limited or nearly nonexistent (short hours), so F&B rates below average.
Overall Experience
7
Overall impressions are generally positive for a budget/Value hotel (clean, comfortable beds, would stay again), tempered by occasional service and amenity issues (breakfast limits, accessibility, billing/Wi‑Fi problems).

Nice place, but you might need earplugs.
Pros:

Good location. Clean and safe. Overpriced, however.

Cons:

Loud neighbors. Hotel TVs should come with volume governors/limiters. Subtitles or headphones could be provided to those who are hard of hearing. And then there’s the people who are bouncing around for some reason either next door or above me. That’s not the hotel‘s fault though.

Overall it was a positive experience and I would definitely sleep here again.

It was very close to our destination of “Peaks of Otter”. The beds were comfortable and the place was generally clean.
