  : Location, price
  : TV is small 32 inches. Breakfast is not worth it. Shower head is fixed, would rather have moveable wand. After working all day, I came back to the room and the key wouldn't let me in. No one at the office. No one answering the Ring doorbell, couldn't reach anyone on the hotel phone number. House keeper let me in hours later. I was tired and this effected my work. I couldn't leave for dinner afraid I couldn't get back in. Only had one key. Hotel uses mercury vapor bulbs. If it breaks, room is contaminated.

  : Sadly, this is a very run down hotel. The room we stayed in was dirty, did not have clean towels, and had serious maintenance issues in the washroom. Hotel staff were pleasant enough when I checked in but were unavailable in the morning when I checked out and had the phone off the hook so I could not reach anyone in the office for assistance. The counter tops have not been wiped down in some time, the washroom toilet paper holder was broken, the tub had a crack and was leaking, and the previous guest's dirty towels were left in the room. One of our hand towels had a previous guest's full face of makeup still on it and had been folded and put away like that. I was saying to my partner that I would have paid all the extra money I needed to in order to feel like it was safe to put my feet on the bathroom floor in our room. All in all, it's only 40 or so dollars less than a Holiday Inn or something comparable so I was mighty disappointed at the state of the room we were given. If my partner and I had not been driving for 14 plus hours prior to checking in, we would have eaten the cost and booked another hotel. I hate to complain but this was just the absolute worst stay I have ever had at a hotel.
  : Please see above. The hotel really should be shut down for repair before taking in any more guests.

  : Small TV's, 32 inch I believe. Pillows are so soft they disappear, I used 4 pillows. You can smell cigarette smoke coming through the bathroom vent, I had the fan run to keep the smell out. Not all speeds and functions worked on the AC/Heater. Steep hill from road to parking lot, you might drag the back of your car. No large trucks allowed. No breakfast or coffee machines in room.
