The property was pet friendly. However you get what you pay for. The property didn't look like the picture. The rooms recked of cigarettes smoke. Although the place didn't look appealing, the rooms in the inside were cozy and simple. The beds were firm and very comfortable to sleep on. Overall a peaceful stay.

I loved how close it was to the event I was attending. The rooms were updated (vinyl flooring), clean and in decent condition for an older property. I know previous reviews were not good, but since new management took over, it's much nicer.

We stayed here for one night. It was very convenient to Chowan University. We had everything we needed and we could tell that there were upgrades made but it is still very old and needs more updating. The beds were extremely hard and noisy when you would move. The walls are thin and it was rather noisy when people were outside the room or walking around upstairs. It was overall clean and there was a microwave and a fridge. I think the stay could have been more comfortable if the beds were a bit softer and less noisy. It was adequate for our needs but definitely could be improved.

This property has had a bad reputation in the past, but it has now been renovated. The king bed was very comfortable. The room and bathroom were clean but sloppy caulking in the bathroom makes the floor around the toilet look dirty but it is not dirty. The shower was fine with a good shower head and hot water. It was a very hot, humid day and night, but the air conditioning kept us cool. The person checking us in was friendly and helpful. There is nothing fancy about this place but it met our needs adequately.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I like that the property was located closely to the university. It was an extremely convenient location. I did not like the staff experience that i encountered upon arrival. He was not welcoming. He presented a room that was not cleaned. The linen was not clean and had cigarette burns on it. The bathroom was filthy and he declined to clean initially. My family and i went to the Dollar Tree on Main Street to purchase our own cleaning products. Once night came, the facilty has a large watchdog that is extremely big and intimdating. He barks extremely loud. It interrupts the peace. We checked out early as a result of our terrible experience.

You get what you pay for

First let me say the Staff was Friendly and helpful. If you are expecting a Hotel that leaves you "Mints on the Pillow" this is not the Hotel for you. It is the most basic hotel on the planet. It is a room, with Air-conditioning and heat, one towel, two washcloths, and a roll of toilet paper. The bed was a bed, clean sheets, but after a long day .... who cares. Parking was not the best. The parking lot was "Full" of heavy construction trucks and there equipment. The hotel was full of construction workers, who were polite. They even offered food from their grills which were in the parking lot. By 5 am the parking lot was empty. If you like music... all the better, you can hear the other guests music 2 rooms away. I got exactly what I paid for.
