The room was large. The bathroom had plenty of counter space. The room had a back door to a seated area overlooking a large lawn and flower beds. Management let us open both doors and we had a nice breeze .
Room was very old and dated. The floor was extremely uneven and felt like the wood was rotting. The lightbulbs were daylight and not warm which gives off a wierd whitish flow instead of warm and cozy. This was the. Cheapest option in the area so you get what you pay for. I was just hoping for something a little nicer. The beds were clean but there were no headboards and the pink bathroom looked like it was from 1950. Overall it was fine to stay in Manchester after skiing but but my son kept saying “Jeeze dad, you couldn’t have spent an extra $30 so we could have a nicer room somewhere else!?”. Oh well. Great location and the owner/manager seemed like a very nice man who was super helpful.
Very clean, and close to the town center and ski resort

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This was very convenient for a friend and I who were attending a nearby wedding. We liked the vintage decor and extra long counter. There were areas of the room that needed repair and replacement, but the beds were comfortable and the bathroom was clean. My friend noticed a strangely placed camera out the back door that weirded her out (seemed to be one at our patio and no one else’s). View from the patio was beautiful.
We enjoyed the large rooms, comfortable beds, ease of parking compared to other properties in the area, and the deck off the back of the room. There are no amenities (food, shampoo, conditioner) but this hotel is a very good value for the price and I'd highly recommend it to travelers on a budget.

The room was quite large, comfortable beds, with a refrigerator, & great dressing area with make-up table. However, the bathroom looked like it was under construction: baseboard missing, mold on the ceiling, dead insects in the light fixture & holes
in the floor. The decor is late 80's .

loved the area around the motel, lots of open space and very peaceful.
the rooms could use an update at some point, otherwise nice
The room was spotless clean and although slightly outdated, was most comfortable in every facet. The gentleman at the desk was most accommodating when I had a booking issue. We'll definitely stay there again.
