Room turned over before we even checked out....

Sunday morning we walked to our truck to put bags in it and came back in to hang out for a bit before leaving. When we got back to our room it was already being cleaned. We didnt check out and still had our key cards. Warning if you leave your room unattended Sunday morning it will be cleaned ragardless if they know if you are returning or not.

Our room smelled like Urine and we were woken up to ants crawling on us during the middle of the night in our bed. We have stayed at this hotel several times and appears it is slowly declining in quality. We paid $170.00 for 1 night and at BEST received a $85.00 a night room/stay. Seems like there are a lot of homeless people being boarded there. A lot of people out in the parking lot hanging around and sitting in cars as people come and go.

A little disappointed that they advertised a hot tub but it was not open or available to use. Property could use an upgrade. Pool was missing a lot of tiles and room where pool was, was quite filthy looking. Very old furniture in the rooms.

Immediately upon entering the room I was hit by a wet dog smell, smelled of urine, the carpet was nasty, gum stuck to it. I had to leave because the smell was so overpowering I was not able to sleep comfortably.

A great place

My husband and I stayed 2 nights Hotel clean and comfortable. Very quiet. Plenty of towels to use. staff very friendly. First morning we went for breakfast I couldn’t believe how busy it was. There was only 1 waitress and a man who appeared to be the bus boy but on second glance I saw him cash people out and he also took orders. This staff never stopped for one second I was so impressed having been a waitress myself years ago The waitress greeted everyone with a smile and a good morning but kept moving making sure everyone got seated had their orders taken and had their coffee cups refilled. The man cleaned tables and set them up for the customers. Apparently there had been a call in so this dynamic team was working short. Price for stay very reasonable and breakfast included our stay was 3/21–3/23 2025

We loved the O'Brien's bar/restaurant. Anita was a great attendant! We would have liked an elevator at the end of the floor. I was a very nice room. Very warm when we arrived. Overall very good. We would stay again.

Great stay!

I stayed here with my family to xx ski at Quarry Roads. The stay was very pleasant! The kids enjoyed the pool very much and the breakfast was great, and the staff was lovely. The beds were comfortable and wifi was fast.
