Gold star Inn
Front desk person was ambivalent to me. Understanding it was 11 pm when I checked in but he seemed upset to be there. Elevator smelled like moth balls. Room was spacious and heat worked fine. For a 1 night fine but probably not longer. Also sheets were stained and blanket had holes.

Clean but not fancy
It was ok. The rooms were clean but really outdated and some outlets didn't work and a light did not work. Location was quiet. It is ok if you want to stay for an inexpensive room but not expecting extras like breakfast. Family who owned was nice and treated us well.

the property and rooms were in poor condition but very clean. If you have a problem with lighting or outlets that worked but now don't instead of addressing the problem they pretend you are an idiot and don't know how light switches and outlets work. When you demonstrate the problem you are ignored or told nothing is wrong. I will not stay there again

It was so bad we didn't even stay Dirty, windows stuck open, holes in the walls, stained carpets and furniture, and strange smells. Security lock on the door was broken. Just horrible I would take it off your site.
