Gross and disgusting

It was so dirty and gross. I went and bought bleach to pour in the tub and toilet. We were crunched for time so we didn’t have much choice but to stay and make the best of the situation.

Very convenient to I81. Owners are responsive to requests. I have stayed here four times in the past few months. Three of the four times I have had to either have my room cleaned or moved to another room. For some reason, cleaning is not an automatic here and it's a shame. The rooms are modest but serviceable and cleanliness should be easy.

The room needs to be cleaned better. The sheets had red stains on them that seemed to be old. It looked like blood. The bathroom was missing a shower head. The microwave oven was not working. There was just one bath towel for two persons. The hand and face towels smelled like they had been used in the kitchen. They smelled really bad. The tub was very dirty, like if it had not been cleaned for months. The sides and floor of the tub were black with dirt. It was awful!, overall. I will never stay there again.

It was a late check in, tired, and wanted to rest. The room was very hot. AC would not go or even set below 80 degrees even after 20 mins or so. Also 4 stink bugs was congregated on top of the curtains. Top it off, the fire alarm was just hanging by the wire from the ceiling. I promptly turned the key back and left. Maybe I am just one off but cannot recommend

Since the owners have another property nearby it may take a few minutes to check in while they travel back and forth. I had one issue with the room and the manager was very accommodating and responded as requested.

I have stayed here before, but this was tge last time. I stayed 4 days and 3 nights. My room was never serviced. The bathtub and toilet were disgustingly dirty. I bought two gallons of bleach to disinfect them both. One gallon into the tub with straight hot water filled and let sit for a couple of hours. The ice machine was not working, so there was a cooler with a few frozen bags of ice to get some. I took two showers. The water was plenty hot, and the water pressure was great. A full sized fridge, but no water supply for ice. No coffee service. Cold AC. But I have nothing else good to say. The location is convenient to Natural Bridge, but overall, I just cannot justify ever staying here again.
