Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff was polite but the room was dirty and did not have a pleasant smell. Toilet hasn’t been wiped down. There were hand prints on the walls. The floor behind the couch hadn’t been swept. Visible handprints on shiny surfaces in the bathroom and on the mini fridge. There was a disturbance outside my room around 2:30am in which the police were called. Also sounded like drag racing on the main road all night. The last two issues were no fault of the business but suffice it to say I got zero sleep that night. If you just need a place to crash, bring ear plugs and Clorox wipes.

The Breakfast was above average but served a bit early for our liking. Hotel staff is all incredibly friendly and caring, some of the BEST we have encountered, evening front desk clerk Susan was very personable and helpful, as was the gentleman working the day shift at breakfast time. I would definitely stay here again if I was in this area in the future.

We checked in and everything seemed fine. We spent the evening out and came back and went to bed around 10. At 11:30 I woke up and rolled over and saw something small moving on the bed around the pillow. I flipped on the light and there were 8 bedbugs on the bed and, when I shined by phone light toward the head of the bed between the mattress and headboard, there were several more coming out from under the fitted sheet onto the head of the bed and headboard. The room was INFESTED with bedbugs. We checked out immediately and put all our belongings in the dryer as soon as we got home and sprayed down our car with bedbug spray. Ended up with several welts from being bitten multiple times. We checked in at 5 and out at 11:30 PM and drove 5 hours home. Overall a bad experience. Would literally go anywhere but here.

The room had a smell like paint thinner, there were stains across the white walls and all the paint in the bathroom was scuffed across the walls to a point of extreme. Upon check in, the front desk agent loudly announced the room number in a lobby full of people causing safety concerns, and then once I proceeded to my room the keys didn’t even work. After they were rekeyed, I went back and someone else was trying to get into my room. Immediately left and found a different hotel to stay at.

First got put in a smoking room which was horrendous and bathroom was so gross it was unusable. We had to pay to move to a non smoking and it was a little better. At least we could use the restroom.

NOTICE DATED OCTOBER 27, 2025. NOTICE TO ANY AGENT(S) IS NOTICE TO ALL PRINCIPALS. NOTICE TO ANY PRINCIPAL(S) IS NOTICE TO ALL AGENTS. Serenity Stay Principals and Owners, I will attempt recourse directly with you and/your property before raising up this complaint and demand for refund to various parties including your Principals.  If I do not hear back and if you do not refund the full amount of my stay this past weekend then I will raise this issue up to a number of parties, detailed below.  I checked out of your property yesterday, October 26th, 2025, after my stay that began this past Thursday October 23rd.  Upon checking in, I was immediately victimized with the "smoking/no smoking" scam you are committing on your guests that upon check-in subjects your guest to a situation of pressure to hear that the room they had reserved as "not smoking" was "somehow" booked as a smoking room.  I fell for it myself under pressure, of course, upon checking in, but when overhearing you commit this scam on additional guests as I stood nearby in the lobby I realized this is an ongoing scam happening to other guests too.  For Front Desk staff "Alex" and "D" to tell guests checking in that they have no control over 3rd party listings of their property is obviously a lie.  As the scam goes, while under the pressure of arriving at an unfamiliar property and expecting to check in to what they believe is their already-reserved non-smoking room, a guest is then solicited on-the-spotCONT'D..]

We did a last minute booking and by far this has been the best check-in process I've experienced. The concierge was very helpful and personable. The breakfast was also good and they had my favorite, bacon & waffles! 10/10 would recommend.
