Walking into the lobby you could tell immediately it was very old and had never been updated. I was only there for 1 night so just needed somewhere to lay my head but I would have not wanted to stay for longer. The staff were very nice. I would not stay there again.

The clerk would not allow my visitors to come to my room. She told them she had to call me ( I looked but did not find a phone in my room). She walked them to my room. I have never experienced this before. The bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. The bathroom door could not be locked because there was no silver plate on the door. The toilet is so low, it’s ridiculous. The toilet is the size for children in elementary school. There is no place to safely park our vehicle, the option they had for me was to park in Timmy’s parking lot next door. I will not return to this particular Sandman.

This property is not for people with disabilities. They do not have the required disability entrance which is the law. Nor do they mention on their website that it is not disability friendly. They need to update their entrance that is required under the disability act

Confusion reigns

The Front Desk was very curt and unknowledgeable. Thank Goodness for the housekeeping staff. The room really needed a deep clean. Mold in bathroom I left behind my phone charger. When we contacted them they had us in the wrong room number? They told us it was not there. Please be in mind there are only stairs no accessibility. Oh well I guess.

My room was filthy. Floors had not been vacuumed for so long I had to keep my shoes on. Bathroom had not been cleaned and had no toilet paper. The front desk closes at a certain hour so I had to go to another guest and get toilet paper. If that wasn’t bad enough at 6 am the power went out in my room…also no one around to fix this issue

Every towel was stained. The doors don’t close quietly, they require some force to shut, so it sounds like slamming doors all night. Staff were knocking on my door at 8am asking if I was still here, then another staff member knocked on the door at 10am to ask if I dropped off my room key at the front desk. I informed that I did not and she showed me the key with my room number in her hand. Upon checkout I asked a lit the 8am knock and she said “it must have been housekeeping” and when I asked where the key to my room came from, she told me that they have extras in the event that a guest leaves for key in the room at check out, then the staff can open the door. She then told me that the key she brought to my room, was left on the front desk where anyone can grab it if they walked by.

Good location, friendly staff

Good location for walking into town (10 minute walk) or to the river. Very friendly and excellent staff. Lobby was clean and tidy, room overall was pretty clean, comfy beds, the carpet desperately needs either a good clean or replacing and there was a large stain on the seat of the chair in the room. Overall good stay and the price was right.
