Flat screen TV, fridge, table with... More

I paid something like $72 with taxes and got basically a brand new room. Wood floors, New beds, New bathrooms, LCD TV, WiFi, the works! I would definitely recommend... More

I booked the hotel room online, as it promised to be a clean and economical room. I was on a business trip for one night and didn't require all the amenities as a pleasure trip. I got to the hotel and the check in was quick. The lobby was exactly like the pictures on the website. As I got to... More

Room smelled bad. Stayed in winter and the lower level sidewalk was covered with a layer of very slippery ice. The only thing good about the... More

The owners refused to accept my cancellation -- although I was well within the time and rules for cancellation per their agreement with hotels.com. They charged my credit card for a room I never used. They refused to respond to either Hotels.com customer service phone calls, my phone calls or my letter. I would NOT recommend booking a room with... More
