Hotel room was very clean. They left an envelope with our key in it , so that was great. No contact with staff but we have been here before so we know where things are. We like staying here at the pines.

The hotel is very old with pealing wall paper. The bathroom curtain was dirty. The heating is an issue, not high enough you will need at least two comforters to get you through the night. No table in the room for you to eat in.

After reading the reviews after I booked non refundable I was prepared to spend a horrific night. But no. The room was made, the sheets and towels were clean. The check-in and out was done through an envelope with my room key with my name at the check in counter. I didn’t have to wait. Yes the decor is from last century but I didn’t even see a ghost. And the restaurant downstairs smelled really good.

Where to begin. Upon arrival at the hotel, we found our key left on the desk with my name, room number and key inside an envelope- no one at the desk. The elevator was broken, the room was 90 degrees, there was dog food on the floor in the corner of the bathroom and we were only given 1 towel for 2 people to use for a 3 night stay. On the paper that was left in the room it had a number to text or call for service since no one was there. I was told someone would be there at 9am the following morning with a towel and to clean the bathroom. That didn’t happen. It took almost 24 hours to even get a towel delivered to our room. Despite the Wi-Fi password being left in the room, the Wi-Fi didn’t work. The TV didn’t work. Definitely had an uneasy feeling staying in this hotel. Other than the bed being a comfy tempurpedic and it being a close walk to Main Street, there was nothing positive about this place. Spend the couple extra dollars and book somewhere else. We loved the Maple Leaf Inn and Townhouse Lodge for past stays!

Worst room ever

when we arrived, there was no one at the desk just an envelope with our name and the key. The elevator was not working. so, we had to use the stairs. When we got to the room it was verry small. the queen bed took most of the room. As we walked in the floor was moving under our feet. The bathroom was tinny, when you would sit on the toilet your head was in the sink. The TV didn't work. If it wasn't late WE would have left for some were else. Worst room I ever stayed at. Hotels.com should be ashamed for offering this place.

It appears they are working on renovating this property however they are not even close to being finished. We ended up not staying. We rented 2 rooms and had to walk up a lot of stairs. No one on duty at hotel. Elevator was not working. One room only had one plug in and the air conditioner was plugged into it. The pictures on Expedia must have been from the best room they have because both rooms we booked did not even look near that good. I would not recommend staying here.

Bed was so small I slept on floor. Bed didnt have a blanket, just a blanket cover and staff said nobody avaiable to deliver a blanket, so my friend slept with her winter jacket on. Since I didn’t sleep I was excited for a caffeinated tee but hot water wasn’t working either.
