Very Good

Terrible experience at this hotel. The room had a roach infestation with what looked like a nest in the corner. There was no elevator, which made carrying luggage upstairs a nightmare. When I asked for a refund, they refused. Definitely not worth the money—avoid this place at all costs.
Une brulure de cigarette sur la couette du lit.
Le contiur de la fenetre rouillée. Mur craqué. On entend le voisin qui prend l’eau. Aucune insonorisation. Cheveux dans le bain.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Very loud music until 10PM in the driveway/parking from other customers. Seems to be a location popular among construction workers working in the area.
The hotel is clean. The staff is friendly. The biggest issue I had was the hotel had a lot of out of town workers staying there that liked to drink and blare music in the parking lot until 10pm. I did not see any effort to stop it. The room was decent with a couple minor issues that did not deter from the stay. I still think it was a good bang for the buck. If budget is your most important consideration then this is the hotel for you.
I didn’t like that you have to buy everything for the kitchen like pots and pans. I think he said you have to buy or rent them out. I love that I was able to walk to Burlington and certain restaurants. A couple of little malls near by too.
Im not one to typically leave a review and it takes a lot for me to feel inconvenienced, but... our room wasnt ready, but OK we can wait.. but then my son needed to use the restroom and the main lobby restroom was "out of order". They did not suggest another source.
Our room didnt have enough towels so after visiting the pool, we all had to share and reuse pool towels for shower towels.
The laundry facility was also " out of order" and I purposefully didnt pack extra clothes bc I was under the influence that Id be able to wash our clothes.
They have a stove top, but no pots/pans/utensils, so that was useless.
But what really topped it off was that they had coffee but NO CUPS!
SOOO as nice as the pool was and they granted us a late check out, we will not be revisiting.
We stayed for 8 days. The laundry room was out of order, the bathroom in the lobby was out of order, luggage cart available (with no elevators), the paint in the bathtub was half peeled off, the room phone didn't work, and you could feel the springs in the mattress by day 3. Oh and you had to log into the wifi every couple of hours. the door looked like some sprayed it and never wiped it. the refrigerator had water condensation on the back wall, and we ended up unplugging the microwave because it had flickered at one point.
The room wasn't as clean as I would have liked. There was hair in bathroom and on floor. Bed was comfortable and seemed clean. Bathroom had caulk which looked like they were filling in gaps and not a quality install. 6.5 to 7 is grade I would give.
