Our room had a terrible smell that wouldn't go away. When we arrived, the smoke detector was completely taped over with masking tape, preventing it from working. The staff was rude. At every hotel entrance/exit, there are people smoking. It is impossible to enter or leave the building without getting smoke fumes. Very seedy place which is surprising for such a nice area in town. After I left, I was overcharged for the pet fee and am still disputing it with my credit card. I recommend you go elsewhere!
Response from Steve on 19 May 2024
My apologies that your experience was not all you could have expected it to be. Although this property is pet friendly, our charges are 50 initially and 10 a day after that. I see that you were charged a total pet fee of 80 for your 3 night visit.

Check in was fairly easy, but as a non smoking facility, there was a very strong smell of smoke in the lobby area. The smoking area was right out side the lobby area, so had to walk through that area to check in and out . The room was large with full size refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and counter top two burner range. The room and kitchenette were clean enough but the ice maker bucket was absolutely disgusting. I took it to the desk clerk and even she was appalled. She had it cleaned immediately, but we weren't going back to room until later. We picked it up when we came back and it was sparkling. When we checked in, there was no soap, shampoo, or dish soap. We asked the clerk and she said most people brought their own because it is an extended stay, but I would expect at least a "started pack" no matter how long anyone would stay. They gave us soap and shampoo, and we did not need dish soap as we didn't use any of the dishware or cooking utensils. The Bathroom looked clean, but on further inspection, there was quite a bit of hair on the floor around the toilet and shower. That tells me the floor had not been cleaned. After a trip to nearby store to buy disinfecting wipes, I literally wiped everything down, even bathroom floor. I always check for bed bugs and there was no sign of any type of infestation and beds looked and smelled clean It wasn't a bad stay, but walls very thin and could hear conversations and TV from both rooms. We stayed 2 nights.

My mother and I stayed here while in town for the weekend. The hotel seems decent enough from the outside, but the rooms are outdated. The front desk lady was nice but clearly overworked, she tried to claim there were no rooms available although I booked the hotel room hours prior to check in and Expedia stated there were 4 rooms left. The room smelled like a nursing home, the sink had pink stains all over it, the shower took 15-20 mins to get hot water to run, the kitchenette sink did not work, the wall A/C ran on constant fan and could not be turned off, the ice maker in fridge did not work. We were evacuated from the 3rd floor due to the fire alarm going off because another guest was smoking in their room. I had to render medical aid to a middle aged woman who fell down a flight of stairs while evacuating and no staff were around to assist during the entire process. It was overall a very bad stay.

I chose this hotel because they had the destination charging 2 J1772 and two Tesla chargers. There was only one parking spot that was not ICE'd, so I was able to charge, but the other three were blocked. I was lucky. The front desk staff was really nice and very helpful when I needed the sofa bedding. The room was dated, and the heating/cooling was not working correctly with the thermostat. The room was roomy and was nice, just dated. It appears that they have some long term guests and I assume those were the ones always hanging out at the entrances smoking, which was not very appealing.

Response from Steve on 30 Oct 2023
My apologies for the misunderstanding between Expedia and our property concerning breakfast. With each room having a full kitchen and it being an extended stay property, most guests buy their own groceries and enjoy them at their leisure. This is also the reason we are able to keep our nightly rates so low. In any case, I hope you will join us again in the future knowing that. Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Room was nice but we didn’t have any shampoo, conditioner, soap, and only 3 towels and a quarter of a roll of toilet paper. It seems house keeping didn’t stock the room. Also would be nice to have a coffee pot and coffee. Called front desk and they didn’t answer (it was after 10). They did give us shampoo and conditioner when we went down and asked for some the next morning.

Looks like they're in the process of sprucing up the place. It's obviously been around a while, but it's still pretty nice as is. No breakfast, but maybe that will change in the future. You could actually live here since they have refrigerator, stove, microwave, sink, dishes, silverware, etc.

Fix the Wi-Fi!
This was a nice room. Clean, newish, all features worked except two particularly important things, Wi-Fi & the TV. The TV had thirty-two channels, close to ten said "No signal available". It wasn't like they lost rights; two of the four ESPN channels were out. The Wi-Fi ran at 3.5 mgs which is fine if you're not gaming. But that was when it allowed connection. It lost connection every 5 to 15 minutes with a couple minutes to allow connecting again. It was useless.. Shame, it was a very nice room.

One-night stand...
Staff was friendly enough and the location offered plenty of eateries (chains) and convenience to the highway. Elevator was unattractive and amenities were lacking. Overall, not bad, but not great. I just needed a clean room for a few hours sleep and I got that. I generally try to avoid extended stay hotels as they tend yo show considerable wear and tear and the staff is not acclimated to the typical hotel client.
