Room and bathroom were clean. But definitely small. A little musty smelling. Breakfast was ok.
Very nice pet friendly hotel. Staff was super nice. The was only concern is that I slipped and almost fell in the bathtub. Should take care of that in all the rooms. Also, the continental breakfast was lacking anything remotely healthy. Add some fruit and hard boiled eggs.....

I was charged twice for this room and it still has not been resolved after speaking to the hotel a few times. This is very disappointing as the hotel was decent.
Area around building was dirty, people walking around back loitering..drinking. Did not seem safe, hotel was rundown looking. Room was just okay. Breakfast provided was horrible..coffee was way watered down..really bad..
The building is small, older and outdated, but the new owners have done some updates. The rooms were modern and clean. The breakfast space is modern but small. All in all, our stay was just fine!
We booked this hotel for about $50 less than other hotels with similar review scores in the area. It’s a renovated super8 style hotel- very basic but our room was clean (even the corners of the bathroom), beds were comfortable and owner/operator at the front desk was friendly. The hotel hallways had a damp but not mildewy-smell, but the room was fine.
Breakfast area had cereal and waffle machine.
Would stay again for an overnight stop on a road trip.
It looked a little rough pulling up but for a cheaper place it was clean, everything worked and beds were clean and comfortable. For someone who usually stays at the bigger brand hotels but just needed a place a sleep as we raced in town late and had to leave early it was great. Nothing fancy but a good clean place if you’re looking to rest your head.
I was first given a room which had not been made up. (At last the front desk clerk apologized, something you very rarely see these days.) The room was pretty smelly, probably from mold and mildew in the A/C system. Room was not in very good shape, junk scattered all over the hallways. I thought that not having carpets would be a good thing. Next time I'll spend a few dollars more here.
The desk clerk said go around the back for easier access to our room. We went around to the back entrance and there was an unsavory character in a vehicle with the windows open smoking pot. His vehicle was right at the rear door. Needless to say, I did not feel safe at this property.

The air conditioner unit was so loud I couldn’t have the TV on and had to wear ear plugs to sleep. It also was so humid in the room even with the A/C running and the bathroom fan on.
We benefited from some of the nice redecorating underway in this older hotel. Our host was pleasant and very helpful in carrying some of our gear down to our room, new carpeting in the hallway was nice and colorful, the beds and pillows were excellent, and the room very clean. We also liked the new floor covering in the room.

Dated and damp
Good staff but the hotel is dated. Room felt damp and the dog's collars felt like they were damp in the morning even though they were not in aby water the previous day.
Traveling highway 94, like a million times before. We've never stayed here but the price was right and the satisfaction scores are good, so we thought we'd try it out. The owner/staff is very involved and helpful. The area has a lot going for it, but walking isn't in the cards for most of it (Aldi is more than a mile away, no sidewalks). Room appears to be renovated, large and in great shape. Outside of the hotel, hallways and doors not quite in the same league.
Bottom line, a very nice place to stay at a VERY nice price!
Staff was awesome! Room was clean.
The door has about a 2 inch gap at the bottom and the lock on our ground floor window was briken.
The entire hall smelled off microwaved fish
