The room was as promised, with a medieval touch, though there was smell in the hall and dining area, nothing too overpowering in the room though .. Study table too small, lotion should be provided.. One thing to watch for: they might not change the bed sheets or cover daily but just make the bed. If you want to ensure the old sheets and cover are replaced, you might need to be a bit proactive and check. I understand that fewer changes of sheets are more environmentally friendly and they usually don’t reach the level of dirtiness from just one night’s sleep. However, this does cut costs, and I think the savings should be passed on to us guests. Given the service and the environment, I would expect to pay less than $110 per night rate I paid this time.

Bathroom floors look like they can’t get clean. Fridge has mold along entire door seal. Floor was too bouncy in some spots. Couch was disgustingly dirty and well worn. Elevator not working. Toilet pipes made lots of creepy noises after flushing. Bed was comfortable, though.

Find another hotel
Do not stay here!!! This is one of the worst hotel stays I have experienced. The entire hotel smelled horrible. It was dirty, carpet has not been vacuumed in what looked like weeks. Towels were super thin and had stains. Mirror over the sink had a large crack. Elevator was broken. Smoke detector was dangling from the ceiling. Security latch above deadbolt was missing. I could go on about how bad it was but I will leave it there. Pay the extra and stay somewhere else.

Dirty bedding. Was given new sheets. When I remade the bed, I saw how unclean the mattress topper and under the mattress was. If a family member hadn’t borrowed my car I would have considered leaving. The carpet and sofa had stains as well. I’ve had okay stays with this hotel in the past.

The room had a very funky smell. The bedding was not warm. It's was thin and no blankets or heavy comforter was used. I had to use bathroom towels on top to try and trap bodyheat. Unfortunately, a mistake in booking by me cost me more money. We arrived after midnight and I had booked a room using that new date. Rather than the clerk canceling our reservation he charged us an ADDITIONAL $25.00 more and told us we could have the room now and check out at 2 p.m. vs 11:00 a.m. We did not need the room beyond the few additional hours. A medical emergency had brought us here for a family member. This transaction left a less than favorable taste in my mouth. Yes, we made the mistake but he took advantage of it by not correcting it when it was explained. Up till now I had excellent interactions and stays at Microtel. If we find ourselves in this position again we will not seek this location out.
