This was the oddest hotel I have ever stayed at, there was no coffee brewing in the morning! The TV remote didn’t work very well, which didn’t really matter because there were not any decent channels to watch! The bed was horrible it was just as bad sleeping on a trampoline! I foresee this hotel closing soon or being sold to another investor, the room had water damage on the ceiling, so my experience was very lack luster, in the future I will be staying at another hotel.

This property is a gem! The property is older but well maintained. The staff was incredibly friendly throughout our stay. The hotel was quiet and conveniently located less than 1/2 hr away from Watertown. Very pet friendly! We will definitely be staying here again.

The Manager and staff were very nice, and helpful. A very small town home feeling. The kids loved the pool. It was a quiet, clean, and frendly town. We sat outside and just talked for hours in the evening with manager, staff, and other guests. Great place to stay, I highly recommend it.

Decent for money

Very large room. Hotel is dated, but for what we needed (clean beds and bathroom) it was good enough. The woman at the front desk was very friendly and polite. She was a very helpful person.
