Stated here a second time with my family for a lacrosse tournament. The hotel smells like cigarette smoke and the room was not very clean. The staff was friendly but the hotel itself needs to be refreshed and deep cleaned.

Room was not fit to stay in(bed bugs, filthy bathroom, moldy smell. Was in town one night due my mother’s wedding. Bc it’s summer and stayed in Sat night, no other hotels had available rooms, so that we could leave. Switched first room bc of bed bugs, second room had no bed bugs, but bedding not the cleanest and bath so dirty had to leave without a shower. Now I can’t get a refund for the $179 its cost. Expects is supposed to be contacting me regarding stay/refund

Entire hallway and room smelled like mold. Horrible stale musty smell. Plus the smell of weed at every entrance. We've stayed in Dover many times during our April vacations, and this place was the worst quality. Hard to believe it's the same price as Microtel across the street.
