The Sterling Inn was not what I expected. It was OK, and for the most part clean and safe, which is the most important thing (except for the hair in the sink, but that was no big deal). The front desk clerk was friendly and I got my room right away, but with all the great reviews I suppose I expected better. I would not stay here again. Overall the place reminded me of a cheap motel.... While fairly clean, the bed and pillows were clearly far older than they should be, the towels were old and flimsy and needing to be replaced, the fixtures were loose and broken, the walls were painted over drywall cracks, the AC/Heater unit worked but was old, the sink clogged up, the shower door was loose and in danger of falling off, and the floors were sticky. I gave it 3 stars because, in spite of this review, it wasn't misleading. The pictures are fairly accurate, and everything else in the area was 3-4x the cost. If I could have planned it better or had a bigger budget or a longer stay I would have stayed somewhere else. I surely will next time. It's fine.
