Our go to hotel

We had no issues and we’ve stayed here twice. The price is always great. The workers are nice and down to earth. Love that we can park outside our room and access room through sliding door. We love this hotel because it’s so close to our favourite restaurant crazy sumo.

Pass this one by if you can.

This property is old and it shows it Paint peeling outside, cheap fake wood vinyl flooring in the rooms. The handicapped shower was broken so it could only be used as a hand held shower. I didn't use the pool because it was so heavily chlorinated that my eyes burned just walking into the pool area. That picture of the pool must be at least 20 years old. Website said they had a hot tub, nope. On top of that, there was nighttime road construction right outside our room every night. Did they mention it at check in? No.

The property was clean and the room nice. I don't like sliding glass doors, I prefer a window. The one way street was inconvenient.

Terrible experience

The toilet did not flush. I had to do it manually inside the tank. No water pressure to speak of in the shower. The one outlet that was accesdible only worked on one side. When i tried to make coffee the water just poured out from under the coffee maker.

We were pleasantly surprised we enjoyed our stayand the kids really enjoyed the pool. This may not be a place to stay if you want really quiet as you can hear everything in the hallway and the walking upstairs over your head. We were in town for cheer comps so there was kids being kids it didnt bother us as one of the cheer families. We brought a fan it drowned the noise enough to get to sleep all in all it was great. Breakfast was minimal but we grabed a pop tart while getting ready to get out the door out the door and headed for dunkin lol

Aside from the doors locking mechanisms and older mattresses, this is a great stop for people on the road. They have guest laundry services, a heated indoor swimming pool, a game room and plenty of different vending machines including ice cream and breakfast sandwiches. The continental breakfast offers many choices.
