The room itself was decent for a low end hotel.
Pros:

Nothing good to say about this property. :(

Cons:

We traveled from Cincinnati to stay here and we check in only to find mold from the floor to the ceiling. This caused us breathing and runny nose the whole time. No other rooms available here or in the area, so we had no other choice to stay here. The bathroom also had mold and paint was peeling off the ceiling. We told the lady at the counter she was rude and acted like it just appeared in 1 day, The amount of black mold that was here doesn't appear overnight. I will never come back here again.

Old motel that needs some work.
Pros:

The staff was very friendly and the location is excellent.

Cons:

The building is old and outdated. The mattresses were old and rather uncomfortable. The bathrrom was pretty dirty and needed updating.

Pros:

Great rate for a spacious room. Bedding was clean and pillows were better than most hotels I've stayed at. Larger minifridge as well.

Cons:

It is an older building so things are a bit dated in terms of fixtures. The tub appeared very worn in my room.

Old vibe, new stuff, great price
Pros:

This has got to be one of the most UNDER-RATED spots on booking. It was probably run down before as the original owner got older, but his son is running it now and renovating everything. Definitely still has an old feel, but I had a brand new bed (and mattress), tv, furniture, toilet and shower. Brand new everything that I actually used. Great price, friendly staff, ample parking.

Cons:

I should have stayed longer.

The winding road leads to the château
Pros:

The location of the hotel was good. We were able to drive anywhere downtown within minutes even with Labor Day traffic. The staff were very nice and helpful. The room and hallway was clean and quiet. We loved the use of the deodorant soap.

Cons:

The bed could have been more comfortable. The shower could have been a little cleaner, but everything else was well cleaned.

Pros:

We pulled in after dark and it wasn't much light on the parking lot side but once we got in we were met with a friendly welcome from Eric the desk staffer.
He was great and he even had this without bags up the steps because they do not have an elevator but it's only two flights which wasn't bad.
They upgraded us to a room with the kitchen because we were there for 4 days and boy did it come in handy. They don't offer breakfast but we cooked breakfast for two mornings and it definitely made up for it. Great location very close to downtown, bowling, and of course Walmart.

Cons:

If I had to choose a couple things I didn't like it was pretty much just the lighting in the parking lot after dark and the fact that they don't serve breakfast but those things are minor compared to anything else.
