Low key, very dog friendly. Nice long dog walking path
Not a bad place for a night stay. Wouldnt spend more than a night here. Great spot to stop in just to sleep passing threw. Not the hilton but served its purpose. Office staff very friendly
Disgusting hotel. Avoid and go elsewhere even if it’s expensive. We HAD to stay here despite the earlier reviews because everything else in the area was sold out. Now I know why this hotel wasn’t sold out.

Absolutely horrible, felt like a waste of money so I didn’t go back for check in at 3 even though it was listed at 2pm. Went with somewhere else.
This place was disgusting. They don’t clean under the beds, and the sheets had crumbs in them.
Hotels.com needs to raise their standards.
I have a photo to prove it.
no cleaning, very dirty bathrooms and very bad beds

You need to get a cat. We had mice in our bathroom both nights.
The only decent thing was that it was clean. Broken doors, broken remote, broken lamp, was frightening pulling in with people that seemed to be just hanging out. Maybe they lived there in a room. All kinds of what appeared to be junk all around run down buildings.
This place was like a scene out of The Walking Dead. My room smelled like a stripper pole, and when I woke up in the morning, I could barely breathe. Do not stay at this hell hole the windows wouldn’t open and there was garbage all around the property.
We actually did not even stay, as soon as we pulled up there was a drig deal right out side the door we were suppose to stay, walked in room awful smell,stain on bed spread pulled back sheet and bed bugs!!! We walked out.
Old run down. Bathtub nasty. Looks like low or no income people live in most all of the rooms. Room smelled like bug spray and purfume. Lots of garbage outside all the rooms on the porch
We had to get off the road because of flash flooding. The best thing I can say is the room was big. The bedspread was dirty, the tub looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for a long time,(see picture), looked like someone tried to break into the front window, the lampshades were torn up, the mattresses sunk in the middle, wow, at least we got to safety.
The hotel was for homeless people they said they had no reservations for us because of COVID the homeless were staying there. The person at the desk sounded like she was drunk and she was very rude. We had to drive hour and half to find somewhere else to stay.
I want my money back
The staff shouted at paying costumers. The room had no heat or hot water in December. The place was filthy. It’s unbelievable they can get away with not even providing heat in winter for days at a time.
Very run down old motel. The only new tning was the tv. Mattresses old and squeaky. Windows didn't open. Lamp had no switch, shade old and cracked. Found bugs in bed. Wouldn't sleep there. Left at midnight and drove home. Am getting money back.
Dirty, electrical outlets hazard, Fly strips hanging in room. Cigarette burns in comforter. Don’t know how an inspector could allow them to remain in business. Didn’t get the room reserved

Unwilling to work with mistake
I was in town for a single night, I accidently booked for the night after. I immediately called to try to correct this error and was told there was nothing I can do about. They basically beat me out of $80. Was a shame. Looked like a nice place too.
While the staff or owners of the property were very nice, it is not kept up with. There was no hot water in the room. Found that out at 11:00 at night after a long day on the road. Floor was sticky there were holes in the wall. Pretty sure the room that I booked was given to someone else and was given a extra room next to the dumpster.
Website says three dogs are allowed and service dogs are welcomed free. Was traveling with one other person and three registered service animals and was denied service due to animals. Volunteered to pay fee for one since it's my daughter's dog and she wasn't with me but was denied service unless I showed by dogs registrations. I explained what the dogs do for us and why but refused to show registration since they can't legally ask for it. We were still denied
There's a reason it shows up as the least expensive motel in the area. The long term residents at the motel add to the ambience of the late night arguing. Apparently the room on my left was mad at the room in my right.
Fortunately the room had 2 beds with an extra set of blankets since the heater thermostat must have been there for decorative purposes only.
And folks in Southern Vermont must like wet hair since the provided, wall-mounted hair dryer did not reach the wall outlet - assuming that you wanted to plug it in.
The plastic sheets on the matress was an interesting feature. Not sure why, unless they help keep any potential bugs away.
Stay if you must, but you're forewarned not to have high expectations.
I've stayed at some inexpensive two-star hotels over the years and am perfectly happy with no amenities as long as it meets basic cleanliness standards.
This was by far the most disgusting motel I've ever encountered in my life. After checking in at the front desk, we were greeted by someone sitting outside one of the rooms who asked what room we had checked into. When I told them, their response was "Oh good, because the rooms on either side of that one have bed bugs."
I would have normally turned around and left at that point, but I was attending a concert in the area and this was the only motel with availability. I was tight for time so I rushed to the concert.
Upon returning to the room at midnight after the concert, I did a closer inspection of the room. It was shocking. There were 3 lamps in the room. One worked - the other two were falling apart. The whole room smelled a bit like mildew. Knowing the other rooms had bedbugs, I stripped both beds. The sheets clearly hadn't been laundered since the previous guests. They were covered with pubic hairs.
The pillows were so thin that even if I had stacked all 4 in the room on top of one another, it still wouldn't have been the equivalent of a typical pillow.
The real kicker was the bathroom. The shower was so dirty that I wouldn't have stepped into it even if I were wearing shoes.
The AC unit appeared to be new and kept the room cool.
I ended up driving 3 hours home at midnight instead of sleeping here.
