Never checked into a hotel with bars on the reception desk. Very secluded area. Many shady people roaming the parking lot. We didn't stay.

The parking lot was very icy and not shoveled or salted at all. The floors in the hotel room were very old and made hollow banging sounds when we walked or even turned in bed.

The room was nicer than expected. The pool is small but a nice temp. The front desk was mostly unattended or partially attended.

NO PETS even though it says pets allowed
Was NOT allowed to check in with our pet (cat) even though the website and sign on door said pets allowed. Front desk was rude and refused to print a cancelation and proof I was not going to be charged. I had to demand a cancelation. It was ridiculous

Don’t go there, especially if you’re a woman traveling alone or a woman with her children. Allow me to list what I found objectionable: 1) they list themselves as pet friendly. Nowhere does it say there will be a $15 charge when you show up to check in, as if you’ve got an option at that point 2) they demanded my for a credit card on arrival and immediately charged me $100 that would be refundable if they didn’t smell smoke of tobacco or other things in our room. I don’t know these people and I’m supposed to trust them to tell the truth about my room and contest a charge from out of state? 3) the room was musty and carpet damp from window air conditioning and no dehumidifier 4) the holes patched in the bathroom wall look like they were done by a child with no paint applied to camouflage the lumpy application 5) the ceiling fan in the bathroom which came on automatically when you turned on the light is on its last legs and rattles loudly 5)) there was a suspicious red blotch on the bathroom wall behind the door 6) there is a gate down at the reception desk with a plastic sheet behind it which is both inhospitable, difficult to communicate through and is downright ugly. 7) we booked a double and we’re given only one card key—one! 8) television experience was poor. I hope I’ve made it clear that this was an extremely BAD experience

OK for an overnight stay, but not the greatest
It was weird to check in with the security gate down across the front counter. The carpets are old and need replaced. The room smelled funky, and the AC unit was old. It worked, but it was either on full blast or off. The exterior door at the far end of the building was supposed to be locked after 10pm, but the door was unlocked when we returned around midnight. Super 8 is usually my go-to hotel on trips, but this location was disappointing.

Nice very basic place to stay, bed was comfortable, staff was friendly. There's a large grassy area around the building - the dog was very happy about that, we took a long walk. Indoor pool is advertised but it is closed indefinitely - oh well. The only thing that made me roll my eyes was the breakfast (advertised as "breakfast buffet") - haven't seen anything that bare for a long time.

I have stayed here before. It is safe, quiet, and conveniently priced. I was very disappointed in the breakfast. It mostly consisted of cold cereal and white bread. On some days they had fresh fruit, but not every day. I have been staying at this Super 8 for two years. The pool has never been open.

No elevator. Had to ask for clean pillow case after the room was just supposedly clean. Bathroom was tiny. Pool was not useable.

I won’t stay here again
I stayed in the room with the jacuzzi. When I got there I was told I had to pay a $100 deposit, but online it says $60. They said it was for this room but no where did it say that online. Everywhere it said $0. I understand but the worker was very rude to me about it. The jacuzzi was fine but it didn’t look like it had been completely cleaned. The room needed to be dusted everywhere. The bed made noises everyone you sat on it. Sometime loud groaning noises that woke me up. I told them in the morning at check out but I was treated like i was overreacting . I told them to see for themselves and i just thought they should know. I stayed there to get away for a night and relax. I won’t stay at this specific hotel again.

The hotel is being updated, we did have some peeling paint in the shower, small TV, The pool was cold the first day but they turned the heat up and it got better. Very helpful to me as i use a walker. We will go back to stay in a jacuzzi room next time.

My room was very clean, they even turned the heater on for me before i got there. The gentleman that checked me in was nice.. explained where things were and times of usage. Breakfast was definitely "on the go" just bagles, cereal, apples, and yogurt. I thought there would at least be a waffle maker. The pool area is locked up because its only for registered guest. There was one day I stepped out to the store for a quick trip left my dog (about 5lbs dog) i get a phone call saying that my dog is barking so muchother guest were complaining. I get there and my dog was asleep. The dog barking was a big dog like full grown huge dog bark. The dog was still barking. The guy didnt even apologize for assuming it was my dog. But other than that it was good
