Adequate
Pros:

Room was clean and bed was comfortable. We chose the Birchwood Inn mainly because all rooms are on the ground level with only a couple steps up from the parking lot (my wife cannot climb steps well). The AC worked well also.

Cons:

The ice machine was empty or not working. Bathroom sink faucet handle not attached - kept coming off. There is no management on site despite descriptions stating 24 hour staffing. We were locked out at 10:00am on checkout day - apparently no one updated the door security for end of daylight saving time (checkout is at 11:00 which would have been correct if DST hadn't ended 5 days earlier).

Choose another place, this one is not worth it. (And I've stayed in hostels)
Pros:

When we checked in, the staff member was very friendly and recommended a local restaurant to eat at. The location of this motel was fabulous for walking to town area. Those are the only good things I have to say about this place.

Cons:

The room was not great at all. It was all kind of dirty and run down. The floor was coming up in spots, there was no/broken towel rack in the bathroom, the shower had no real curtain so water leaked when it was used. The absolute biggest complaint I have for this motel was that the front desk said it was open until 10pm. When we went at 9:45 to ask for towels, it was locked and we had to call and ask for them by phone. Note: we had exactly one hand towel and one washcloth in this room. 3 guests and ZERO bath towels. That's what we asked for and when they finally did bring them, they were rude about it and grilled US as to why we needed towels and did not believe us that there were no towels already.

We were supposed to stay two nights but only stayed one night.
Pros:

The location was good

Cons:

The room was full of flies and smelled moldy. The microwave was plugged in to an extension cord which was plugged in to the TV. The small refrigerator wasn’t working properly and barely kept drinks cold. I had to go buy fly swatters and air fresheners. The pool was green and dirty. Shortened stay tried to check out office was closed.

The stay was fine just not what my sister paid for.
Pros:

The pool was good. The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

TV didn't work in first room (16). But was nice. Got moved rm 18 because of TV. No power or air condition. Went back to office to get another room. Moved to rm 19...no TV and bed not made. Was then moved to room 15. Faucet was leaking but decided to stay because it took an hour and a half to finally get a room by 10:30 and we got there at 9. This room was a step down from what my sister paid for.The stay was fine

Although our room my good.... my brother had problems and had to be moved four times.
Pros:

Me and hubby were happy with the room. Slept well. Bathroom is small but not a big deal. However the corners of the bathroom floor could have been cleaner.

Cons:

Didn't like that all contact was by phone. Never saw a person at the desk. The office was always locked. However whenever I called someone always answered. Housekeeping was VERY friendly.
