A bit of an odd vibe that made me uneasy after being sent to dangerously moldy room, but an ok stay.
Pros:

It is a bit hard to accurately rate this hotel due to an odd experience at check-in. As I checked in after a long travel day, I realized that I had forgotten to ask for a ground floor room (I was on a cycling vacation and wanted to be able to wheel my bicycle in/out easily). The person checking me in wasn't too happy to redo the computer input and said something to that effect, but gave me a room on the ground floor. Upon entering it, I encountered a rank stench of mold so strong that I immediately exited. The odor was so strong that I actually felt physically ill for a good hour or so afterwards, even though I was in the room for just a few moments. It was akin to being hit with tear gas or some other noxious chemical which can affect you through even the briefest of exposures.

A different hotel clerk apologized then gave me a different room on an upper floor. I used the elevator which was fine for getting my bicycle up and down.

I'm not sure if the management knew about the problem in this room or not. (And I'm not sure which is worse--knowingly sending a guest to a room with a health hazard or not being cognizant of the problem).

There was a bit of a "red-neck" vibe in the hotel and I didn't feel comfortable/safe confronting them about it while still in town at their establishment.

Aside from this, however, the room I actually stayed in was fine--although it needed to be aired out and unfortunately, the window opened only a few inches.

The room had a kitchen with full size refrigerator and there were washer/driers that one could use for free.
