Typical country motor inn with exposed brick walls for the interior—overall, very tired and dated.||On the plus side, the room was relatively clean (except the lounge), and the bed was reasonably comfortable. However, the booking process was a nightmare: I booked two nights through Hotels.com, then cancelled one night within the no-cost window and rebooked accordingly. Despite this, the cost for one night on Hotels.com was $144. However, upon arrival (reception was only open until 3 pm), they had two bookings for me instead of one and could only put me in a spa suite (which I didn't need) for $174. After some haggling, the receptionist lowered it to $154—still more than the quoted price. At that point, I decided not to argue further.||Obviously, pets are allowed, as a barky dog was next door!||On a MASSIVE NEGATIVE, I was getting out of bed to shower when I was confronted by a woman letting herself into my room with a key—no warning, no knock. This is very, very poor form. I should have snubbed the door, but this is a huge security lapse.||Other areas where the inn needs improvement:|1. The alarm clock wasn't plugged in or set.|2. Wi-Fi speed was 2 MBps—barely worth the effort.|3. The showerhead had green calcification all over it.|4. The fan in the ensuite sounded like it was about to take off.|5. Wi-Fi signs and other notices were dirty and brown.|6. The air conditioning unit is ancient and ineffective, even at 18 degrees on a hot night.|7. All the wood paneling is chipped and worn, in desperate need of an overhaul.|8. The linen was threadbare and in dire need of a refresh.||Overall, the stay was far from satisfactory. Improvements in the booking process, facilities, and **security measures** are desperately needed. Fixing these issues would significantly enhance the experience for future guests.
