This property was fairly clean but shabby and run down. A new bathtub is sorely needed. The bed was comfortable and there was a small refrigerator with a freezer which we needed. The person at the desk was friendly and helpful. We have stayed places for the same cost that were much nicer

This is a low-end motel. There is incessant traffic noise from the highway. The only nearby eating establishment is Star Cafe, a typical greasy spoon with minimal fare. The only saving graces are the adjacent laundromat and the price. There is also a minimart by the gas station for survival needs.

It was economical but deferred maintenance probably accounts for that. Outside is trash-free. Front desk young man was efficient. Room smelled musty. Couldn’t stay there more than one night.

we paid top dollar for the Jacuzzi suite. Room was out dated and smelled like mold and cat urine. They offered a regular suite. But after seeing the expensive room we were afraid to see the low end room. They did not want to refund any money. Because we used a 3rd party booking. We did not stay we drove the 3 hours home

In spite of all the negative reviews we read .. some of which portray this hotel as seedy .. and "dangerous" this was not our experience and I was glad I booked before I read them. The staff was fantastic, friendly and accommodating - and we arrived late.. so they could have been not nice. yes the building is tired and aging . and needs an update ..very much so .. but for the cost - was well worth it. and when paired with Star's Cafe - a small independent 6am to 2pm breakfast lunch cafe.. which for less that $20.00 we got 2 "everything omelettes" that filled a platter with, toast and coffee -- who needs the "included" stock breakfasts you get at most discount motels like Super 8 .. in Canada those omelettes would have been $20 ea. .. so worth the stay for a quick stop .. while travelling I90

old soap on the tub shelf and there the second day also. no tea or even hot water. I filled a cup of water in the laundry room -the sink was filthy. I only stayed the second night because of the price. I am on limited income and no senior discounts, etc.

I booked a room on expedia.ca and upon arriving at the hotel I was informed the room was not supposed to be listed for online booking. The desk clerk tried to upsell me into the the same room for more money. I took a standard room. The room condition was pathetic to say the least. The bed was broken, the desk chair was not able to be sat in for fear of falling apart, the bathroom was from late 70's or early 80's. Five days later I am still waiting for a refund from expedia due to the manager never being at work.

Okay, but beware of mold

There was some significant mold in the bathroom that set off my asthma. The bathrooms weren’t quite what was in the pictures. It was okay enough for just crashing for the night, but I wouldn’t have stayed longer.

I thought the negative reviews were people over reacting until my visit. There is an additional charge (deposit) when you get there that was not on the website. Check-in lady told me she needed a deposit (even though my room was paid in full) first she said $200 then $300 (a handwritten sign taped to the register read $100. You get it back once you checked-out instead of waiting 14 days back on your credit card. When I checked out another lady gave me a hard time. I had a receipt and told her I'm not leaving without the deposit. The rug was not cleaned at all and was wet, go barefoot in the room and your feet ended up black/dirty. Locks you had to push your door shut to actually lock it. They have no extra rolls of toilet paper and forget about having the bedsheets cleaned/dry or extra pillows Towels they had to take to wash/dry and return as well. The maids that came around was the only thing positive I can say about this place. They were polite to us, apologetic, they did deserve the tips.

Arrived early and could not check in immediately. Attendant went out of her way to come find me waiting nearby to give me my key. Room was basic and in need of update but clean. Lots of noise outside. Great cafe across the parking lot for a great breakfast.

Rip off .

So I’m an essential working for hospital and clinics. I travel from Texas to Maine installing medical equipment. I paid for a 5 night stay . I had to leave on the 3rd day to head to another job . I was only here until another Lead Boss showed up to take over. I check out on the 3rd day. I ask the manager if she can give me 2 days of hotels fee back . She told me she could give me a voucher . I explained to her I wanted two days of stay put back on my card that I paid for at her front desk . I explained I sure I’d never be back here to stay . She refused to give me money back . Again only stayed 3 days but paid for 5. I have been trying to contact her since I left. She has ignored me and not called me back . So guess I have to take her to court . Also will be reporting her to BBB . Cause she is ripping people off. She should not be running the hotel or any hotel at that .
