Bed comfortable, room clean, free parking, bad bathroom, cheap price
Pros:

The breakfast was standard, and it was included in the room rate.

Cons:

The faucet for the shower was terrible. It was missing a piece, I finally was able to get water to come out of the faucet, but not out of the showerhead. I also was not able to get the water hot. The whole bathroom decor was very dated.

Fleas and curdled milk
Pros:

Check-in was very slow, with the one rep listening to another guest tell stories at length while a line formed behind her. My room key had to be remagnetized 3 times before I could access my room. There was a flea jumping around in my bed. The milk at the breakfast buffet was curdled and there was no one to ask for fresh milk — we ended up eating at the Chit Chat Diner up the road (which was great, highly recommend.) Value was good and rooms are a decent size but would not return or recommend.

It was a very comfortable, safe, and clean stay. Would stay again, especially for a short trip.
Pros:

Clean and spacious room with a rental rate that included breakfast. Great to have a fridge (with no mini bar) and a microwave. The complimentary water bottles and generous bath accessories were a plus.

Cons:

There was no wifi or internet service and no alternative. The two phones in the room did not work. Both issues were know to the establishment and guests were not proactively informed. The bfast was advertised as hot, but is best described as a deluxe continental breakfast, or a hot continental breakfast. The bfast consisted of a warm pre-packaged egg & sausage biscuit sandwich, a waffle iron, various bread and pastries, a toaster, dry cereal, yogurt, juice, tea, and coffee.
