Please take this hotel off your site. I booked online and when I arrived at property the clerk was asleep. I had to knock on window and door to wake him up. He then proceeded to get mad that I woke him up and woukd not check me in. He told me he didn't care I had a booking and to call the police. So I did call the police. When I called Expedia they called the property to try and help me but he said he was still going to charge me. I had to wait for the police and get a report for the fraud the clerk was trying to do. I called Expedia back and then finally the clerk said he will refund my card.

Do NOT stay here! I am not a picky person when it comes to hotels. I have stayed in some not so great places but this one was terrible. The property was run down and dirty with trash. When I checked into my room there was broken furniture as well as a hole in the wall that was stuffed with a Styrofoam cup. There was also a hole in the floor that looks like it might have been a toilet drain. I checked for hot water and it barely got warm. I ended up walking out of the room after a few minutes and getting my money back.

Sketchy as hell!

I didnt even sleep the night. I parked, looked sketchy from the outside and for good reason. Walked up and was approached by a gentleman upon reaching the door who followed me in trying to get my number, telling me he could provide me with anything I wanted or needed. Staff informed me at check in that it was cash only. Did not want to give me my id back until i returned the room key but I wasnt allowing anyone to just keep my id. Go into the room where there was no heat and the window was left open. This is Feb with 2 ft of snow outside. The room was disgusting. Light was so dim you couldnt see without opening the curtain. Didnt even step foot in the bathroom. The pictures dont show the real condition inside. Enough free parking for about 6 cars if the parking lot is cleared but it wasnt. Im not expecting super nice with the price but for $10 more I went to Days Innand slept comfortably after driving a long time.

There was no hot water the entire night. The fire alarm kept going off. The room was filthy and smelled heavily of smoke so much so the odor is still in my coat. If you’re going to stay here do NOT BRING YOUR CHILDREN! It’s best for heavy smokers and men. The carpet was dirty the blanket had cigarette holes burned into them. There was food trash in the window. We had to sleep freezing cold with the window open to combat the smell.

It's basically a local 'paid' shelter. No smoking signs in lobby, but furniture had numerous burn stains and ashes. Heavily stained carpet. Dingy looking linen, but did smell freshly laundered. No security, i.e. chain on room door, which looked like it has previously been busted in. Simple door lock that like you'd find on a bathrook door. Exterior room door looked like it has been previously busted in. Although there are young mothers with children who evidently live there, it's not a place for the \"faint hearted\" who also might feel threatened by young men idling near-by. LOL

BTW, it took mgr several hours to find a tv remote after searching other rooms, despite no vacancy other than one near lobby awaiting a guest who was paying $150 for the night. (So I was told. Didn't know if that was real or an attempted hustle for me to pay for an upgrade.)LMAO Anyway, I slept soundly with the only chair hooked up under the door knob.

I was greatly disappointed when arriving and seeing questionable people loitering around the front door. The dumpster at the rear of the parking area was overflowing greatly. The front desk clerk was very kind. Before he would accept our non-refundable payment he gave my husband the room key for him to check it out. My husband said the room was awful and the sheets were stained. Needless to say we left and found another room. This hotel being on Expedia's list is extremely disappointing. We were looking simply for a place to sleep after conducting some business in Waterbury. That's why the low rating was not alarming. We were not looking for amenities but simply a night's rest. I would never under any circumstances recommend this hotel.

Felt Iffy, but was good enough for the night.

The man behind the bullet proof glass was very nice and insisted he show me the room before charging my card.
I appreciated that.
The room was bare bones, but did have a TV.
I wondered if they had an hourly rate, but didn't ask.
There is a reason why it is the cheapest hotel listed in the area.
I was tired, it was late and raining and I needed to rest.
I took the room. It was adequate.
It was quiet all night, and my car was still there in the morning.
My heart goes out to struggling businesses like this who are trying to stay open in a bad economy.

Dirty. I asked them to vacuum, please. They said there is no vacuum cleaner. Carpet very dirty. Stains and dirt on bed spread. I slept on blankets from my car. I slept with shoes on and clothes on.
No mirror in bathroom. No place to set anything in bathroom. Wooden table and chair in room were dirty. I cleaned them with sanitizer wipes. Smell of stale air. No bedside reading light or table. Only ceiling light.
(I needed a place for the night. Other places booked. This was $74 ($87 with tax). I plan to ask for a partial refund. Not much sleep.
Also fire alarm located in the room went off. When I called the desk, they said it does that when someone takes a hot shower somewhere else in the building???? I was asleep!!!

Not the front desk clerk's fault. I booked an overnight room to stop 1/2 way on a long trip and when I got there the lady took one look at me and said, \"We don't have any non-smoking rooms.\" Best to go find another hotel unless you want to be in a smoking room.

The two star rating on this property is very generous. The property is aged and in poor condition. The environment is dodgy to say the least. Lots of people milling around with nowhere to be. However, the water was hot and the pressure was good, and peculiarly the lavatory tissue was very good quality if that is important for you. The police removing a decesaed person two rooms down from us in the morning was a little off-putting, but not entirely surprising. You have been warned.
