Liked: Cleanliness
The staff was either unfriendly or stressed when we checked in. The pool was unavailable, so we were given a pass to go to another pool in the area, and although that was nice, it was iinconvenient. Breakfast time ends at 9, and all other places we have traveled have been 9:30 or 10, so we didnt eat..

Very small bathroom and the carpet was not clean especially in the hall and on the stairs. FYI there isn’t an elevator. The check in person was great! Room was as clean as it could be since it was an older hotel. Love the area and the price

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Hotel was clean and rooms comfortable. My only real issue was with the EV chargers. Both chargers had issues. I could get the Tesla charger work at all. The other charger worked intermittently. The chargers were the primary reason I chose this hotel, so that was kind of a bust.

This was a place to sleep, the bathroom had what looked like black mold on the ceiling and a sign on the door that said not to shower with the door open because it would set off the smoke alarm! The beds were fair. We got some sleep but don’t think I would ever stay here again. Also the town literally closes down by like 9 - 10 p.m. so eat early and get snacks.
