The linens and towels had stains. Thd red cover looked disgusting. The sink took along time to drain, almost clogged. The shower is small and was too scared to use tub. Grout coming off tile. The ice machine broken. You could hear car doors. Expensive fir what you got. Air rattles which helped outside noise once you got used to it.

Great value for the price - but you get what you pay for. Very quiet location. A lot of work has been done to make the place attractive. A/C worked great.

The best room ever

The people were very friendly. The room was very clean. The bed was comfortable. The refrigerator worked very well. We liked the room better than the Beau Rivage in Biloxi MS. We will be staying at the Cottonwood Inn again.

Great option for a low price!

I grew up in Salem and there’s not much of an option available. Came into town for a funeral. The Cottonwood has a history of not being the best. But I was pleasantly surprised! For the rate you are paying it was actually pretty great! Room was clean and ready at arrival. Linens were nice, bed was comfy. I chose the room with a kitchenette and it suited my needs. Breakfast provided, small but adequate. I would gladly stay here again.
