You need sidewalks so people don't have to dodge cars in the parking lot. It was very slippery too. I did appreciate that I was on the first floor, good for older single women.

Very upset. Upon arrival we checked in and were not informed that the pool was not in service. When we asked when the pool would close that’s when the front desk told us about the pool heater not working. I asked if we could check out early and still get out money back. We were told yes. Now I’m having trouble getting my money back for the night we didn’t stay at this hotel. I want someone to look into this please.

Kicked out with 6 year old son. No explanation and only 15 minutes to pack. We have always been clean, quiet and respectful to staff. Front desk person was unprofessional, clueless how to do his job, and was quick with the threat to call the police. He scared my son and seemed to be on a power trip.

The list of things that were bad with this place is long but some were very filthy floors( looks like they hadn'tmopped for a year, our socks and slippers were black), broken toilet-my hubby wound up fixing it because the staff made it worse), shower knob was stuck and worked very hard, empty poop stations(no bags) for entire 8 night stay, some very rude staff, dirty microwave, scratchy sheets & pillow cases, most of staff couldn't speak English, the two things that were good about was the restaurant inside the hotel was excellent food and service and the lobby had nice big gas fireplaces. It was suppose to be a pet friendly hotel but they treated us like crap just because we had an ESA Yorkie, tells us not suppose to leave him in the room but yet not allowed to bring him to the cafeteria with us, very ironic! One of the front desk girls was usually sleeping behind the desk or on her cell phone but has the nerve to threaten to call the cops on us and put us on a DNR list just because we asked for some compensation for all the inconveniences or at least a discounted rate for an additional night. She absolutely doesn't belong in customer service, very rude! Also couldn't resolve it through general manager because they don't work Friday, Saturday or Sunday!!

Advertise pool but it's broken. Bait and switch.
I booked a stay here because it said on your website they had a pool. I get to the hotel and they say their pool is down. 2nd hotel in Keene I tried to book with a pool that thwir pool was down. They said they needed parts. Not my issue. I'm handicapped and can't drive all over town. I stayed. Bait and switch. Say you have something to get you to stay here and they don't have what was advertised. Should be on the hotels app that their pool is broken. Marriott in Keene also said pool but theirs is broken also. I left their had to cancel my reservation and waste my time. Come to best Western bwacose they have a pool. Nope theirs is down also. I heard the same owner owns all the hotels here in Keene. Two hotels advertising and pool yet they don't have a pool. Very unhappy.
