One pro: Clean room …but that’s the beginning and the end: The hotel had an unfortunate accident of frozen pipes that exploded and made the front entrance unusable. This meant a frustrating start to check in as no one would unlock the side entrance since we were not yet guests. The first room we were put into was directly across from the elevator on the 3rd floor when the occupancy rate was visibly very low during Christmas week. The shade in the room was also broken and hanging off a chain. When we went down to ask to change right away, a comment was made that we hadn’t requested away from the elevator. (…which should only « matter » with high occupancy, in the instance that there wouldn’t the be a room change available.) The second room was just down the hall. The shade was barely functional and does not block out ANY light at all. Both queen beds had massive mid- bed bumps from age and the size of the room for three people was tiny. The desk chair was stained and rickety. The bathroom was fine, but the towels were visibly old and in need of replacement. The in-room AC/heat was noisy….But the hotel had their building heat up so high that we were forced to use the AC in December?! Also, you still have to request a stay-over clean daily that other hotels have returned to post-Covid without request. The biggest peeve: What made this stay fully 100% miserable, however was that every night of our stay, without fail, loud shaking/bass thumping music would come from somewhere in the hotel. Some nights it was prior to 10 pm, then other nights it started between 12-2 am. When we called down to complain, it would be addressed. HOWEVER, if you had a guest that was obviously so ignorant of courtesy for four nights running, don’t you think you’d find a better solution rather than putting the impetus on the polite guest to complain by moving the other guest or asking them to leave? When my husband spoke to the general manager, she said to just keep calling down which really isn’t fair to others in such a situation. The icing on the cake the last night then was a barking dog across the hall at 4 am. Again, one of these things would’ve been no big deal, but added up, it was a frustrating stay. The hotel coffee was not drinkable (not hot at any hour of the breakfast time and so weak it was transparent) and we didn’t eat breakfast, but it did appear well-stocked daily. We were very disappointed in our stay, and even more so as we come to town at least a few days a year to visit family and the location is great for us. Honestly everything would’ve been « okay enough » just not to return without us writing this review had they showed us our right to quiet mattered enough to take care of the noise promptly and permanently.
