I liked the property, its different. However, the wifi needs some love. Used my hot spot because the wifi suffers from low performance.

The facility itself is dated and could use some renovation. The bed was huge and comfy, sheets/towels clean - only one bar of soap provided. TV, frig, microwave and A/C were all functional. Carpet needs to be shampooed. TP was cheap and thin. Office staff was hard to understand at check in, then we never saw any other employee. Got a smoking room which was GROSS!

I’m going to rate this based on what the price is and not compare to higher priced hotels that I normally stay at. I was here for Amish bike ride. It was just me and I’m very easy going. The good: - Cost - Fast food. Walk to Wendy’s and McDonald’s are couple doors down. - Convenient stores. Wawa is 5 min drive. - Fairly quiet. I only saw a few cars parked there though. - Non smoking. I got non smoking room and no smell of smoke. - Air conditioner - worked. - No bugs. I didn’t see anything. - Microwave and fridge worked. - Parking - got space in front of room. It was a little empty though. - Businesses - it’s on a busy street so lots of other options if looking for something. Bad - No shampoo. I asked for and didn’t have. - There was dirty towel or was clean with dirt marks. - Visually looked clean but if look closely little dirty. There was actually some dog throw up or something in corner under chair. - Tv - not sure if expecting too much at this price point but tv had no HD. And seemed to only have access to basic channels. I gave it 4 stars based on the price. Would I stay here again - possible but may check out other cheap hotels down the street. I wouldn’t bring my family here unless needed to.

Phish Festival for the win
When 50,000 people descend on Dover to attend a phish festival and you decide to go late in the game, don't wanna camp in the muggy weather, you pivot and take a room with air conditioner. That was the best part of the room. Normally $75 we got $250 rate because they could. Room hasn't been updated in 20 plus years. Reached of cigarette smoke and air freshener. Carpet had cigarette burns everywhere. Bathroom was stained and gross. But there was a hot shower and a fridge. Normally you get what you pay for... not in this case. Would I stay there again. Maybe if I was as desperate as I was this time around.
