Room was in good condition and check in at night was excellent. We didn’t check in at the front desk we were given text message on how to check in. The text message has the name of the motel, room number, door code and the WiFi password. The only complaint I had was the smell of cigarettes it was hard to get a full nights sleep.

Clean room, staff on her job when it came to the code for the room and communication is spot on. Did I say clean room which if no one else appreciates I do. No smell whatsoever. Organization of room. This is going to be my new spot when I come back into and I come at least once a month for business. I am pleasantly excited about my stay. No worries or concerns that wasn't taken care of. Now this is how a Inn should be.

Very "do it yourself" kind of place, which was fine. Breakfast was a little bit weak, but that was not a huge factor for me.

A very pleasant surprise is my reaction to the Balanced Rock Inn. Property is clean and the staff is very kind. The Inn has a hostel feel to it, which I liked. The rooms are clean and accomodating with a very nice updated bathroom and amenities. The only slight issue is the bedding that is all polyester. I broght my sleeping bag and my own pillows as a regular precaution when I travel and those came in handy. Cotton sheets would be a plus but understand the reasoning behind polyester for durability. I would gladly recomend this place to stay!

As advertised. Drip coffee was actually drinkable compared to many places that provide coffee. Definitely would stay again. Only upgrade would be for them to have a hot tub!

The room was ready for us and the check in process was a piece of cake. I loved the virtual check in. The bathroom door didn't quite close all the way and the shower faucet kept dripping, but other than that the stay was great. I'd come back again.
