Convenient location to nearby shopping and dinning. Nice atmosphere and staff. Good breakfast but bad coffee. Had to go to Starbucks. Hard to figure out the TV channels. My room phone did not work. Had to call front desk on my phone.

Surprised but pleased

My initial encounter was not quite pleasant with the young man who checked me in. Superficial. But Ms Kim made up for it. The kitchen staff was very pleasant. Good breakfast.The pictures you see are real. Nicely renovated beautiful courtyard, comfortable beds, clean, I like the laminate floors. My only downside was, there were tournaments going on and the children got quite noisy at night once they returned. But my second night got better when they were asked to silence the noise. Very nice hotel for the price compared to the nearby brands. I would visit again but making sure no group activity is going on next time.

The room was amazing, very nice and clean. The issue I had was with the cable. It kept freezing on every channel all night and it was frustrating watching TV. The people were very nice and friendly.

Great 2 night stay on business

I loved the Equus Inn for my 2 night stay. It was comfortable and had good amenities for the price. My ONLY complaint is that the TV buffered the whole time so it was hard to watch much. I'm guessing it was a WiFi issue since they are smart TVs.

It was okay...

Booked this because of the reviews and the proximity to where I needed to be. The facility was clean, but a little worn. The shower was tricky - the water handle kind of spun and finding a temperature that wasn't scalding hot was tough. Room phone didn't work and some of the electrical outlets did not either. Had to move the desk to an area where there was working electric. The description said that there was a bar, but there was only an area that had beer and wine on tap that you could purchase with your room card - and not all taps were operational. Staff was friendly. Breakfast was okay. Would not book again.

My sister and I had an Amazing stay at Equus Inn. The service here is Above and Beyond expectations, especially with the staff that handles the Breakfast buffet. They are all kind and attentive. I loved the fact that it was minutes from my families homes. It's conveniently located near many restaurants, shopping malls and highways. We were able to relax at the pool early hours before heading out. We love this place and plan to stay here on our next trip from NY. If you like museums, The Appleton Museum is nearby. 🙂

Bugs on our bed

Bugs were found everywhere. The worst part was finding bugs on both nights even after we requested to have the bed sheets changed. We didn't even stay the 2nd night. We drove back home the 2nd night after finding the 2nd bug
