The room was very clean, smelled fresh and it did not have any carpets which I very much so appreciated. Water pressure in the shower was strong, linens were crisp and towels were new. Location was convenient to everywhere I needed to be. I will definitely stay there again.

It is always a pleasure to stay here. We return to the area (from Florida) once a year to visit w/family and friends. The hotel property is very clean, thoughtful layout of our room and amenities it offers: microwave and fridge; large mirror; ample clothes rack; desk/chair. I really like the long counter space in a separate area of room.

After booking this hotel, i visited it personally and was horrified of its condition. I personally told the manager to cancel my reservation and he acknowledged that he would cancel it. HE NEVER DID. This place is deplorable and not fit for human habitation.

I stayed at Cheshire Welcome Inn for 3 weeks while in the area for work training. I appreciated the easy check-in & check- out & loved that the hotel was 10 min from where i needed to be. The first room i was nice with a king size bed. The second had a queen bed. Both rooms were very clean. However both rooms had neighbors who smoked and the smoke blew into my room thru the windows. The staff was nice and helpful when my tv went wonky and my key card was demagnetized.

You can tell this hotel was an older one that had been renovated, but it was by far one of the cleanest ones I have stayed in ever. The beds were as comfortable as other high dollar chain hotels. Staff was exceptionally friendly, and the grounds were impeccable. Bring your own soaps and shampoos though because their packages are a little small.
