It is a dump. The lobby doesn't look horrible, however the hallway and rooms are another matter. The carpeting in our room was old and needed a good cleaning and the bed was hard as rock. It just looked dingy. We settled in and my husband got a call to come to the desk. When he got there they said... More

We picked this hotel because several family members were staying there for a family funeral and the price was economical. When we checked in we were sent to a room with a large box in the middle of the room and there were no heat controls on the unit. Went to the front desk, and they changed rooms for us... More

This establishment was an excellent 'find', amidst a large cluster of big name and higher name motels of very good reputation. This Motel, part of the Best Western Family, was clean, efficient, quiet, and had an admirable staff. In particular, one Mrs Roshni, was extremely gracious, and a bonus to her employer. I would recommend anyone to this motel. More

The Castleton Inn advertises as a Best Western, but there is no BW sign outside. The lady at the desk looked overworked and tired, but the room service was kind. My guess is that this hotel is seriously understaffed. The stairs between the floors were absolutely dirty, for example. Breakfast was extremely poor, the coffee tasted like water and there... More

We picked this hotel for two equally balanced reasons - it was in the heart of a shopping area and also the price. We had two rooms for 2 couples and while one was uneventful, the other one had a leaking bathroom from the floor above. We asked for a change and got another room that, we discovered the following...

This hotel was moderately priced, so we decided to give it a try while we were in town for a wedding. They do provide some hot items for breakfast (no meat), but we had to wait about 15 minutes for the eggs to cook in the microwave, the biscuits were dry and hard, and the juices were mis-labeled. It was... More

Hotel was well located in a safe and convenient area. We paid $69 + tax for a suite. The room was very sparsely funished and fairly well maintained except for the floor in both the living area and the bedroom. The floor looked like it had not been vacuumed in some time. The sink in the bathroom would drain only... More

First, I'll just say that for many travelers, my objections might not matter so much. That said, I found the hotel to be in rough shape. Though the employees were friendly and helpful, the rooms were pretty dirty--stains on my bed sheets; what looked like an emptied-out box of raisins (or something...didn't look closely) beside the bed, along with a...
