There are some serious violations involving smoke alarms at this location that have me concerned…read more I am grossed out at the age of the room and the sticky, musty vibe. Stained bedsheets, uncleaned showers, hairy floors. My allergies spiked when I entered this room and dissipated when I left, and I think it was the air circulation system. My other concern is the smoke alarms. Kidde Firex 41216 gc dual ionization smoke alarms. Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years, or more if it is in a hotel to maintain guest safety. This alarm should be tested once a week and cleaned at least once a year. This smoke alarm should be pure white in color, and instead it is yellow and faded. I wonder if this means this room has been a smoking room in the past. It is unlikely these smoke alarms have been tested. The smoke alarm in my room did not blink, which could mean either the light is out or it is not connected to power. I like Hilton in general. The staff is nice, the breakfast was nice-ish, but there are some serious things that they need to fix.

Having travelled for work quite a bit…read moreover the years and experienced different brands, I've been very happy with the Hilton brand for decades. I find Tru to be a lively refinement of the traditional hotel experience. The color scheme of the lobby sets Try apart from other Hilton brands. Fifteen years ago, I enjoyed the minimalist theme of Four Points by Sheridan, but today I feel Tru by Hilton is more energetic, sophisticated, and more on point for me. While I think Tru was intended for young travelers, I feel Tru suites me in my early 60s. I very much liked the complimentary breakfast better than what is served at a Hampton Inn. I liked the pancake machine over the waffle maker. The Lavazza coffee was a welcome feature too. The rooms are a bit smaller, but still comfortably fit a king-sized bed. There is a small refrigerator, but no microwave. Exposed rods, pipes, and pegs replaced dressers and armoires. The shower was full glass with TWO glass corner shelves, so for a change I didn't have to store my toiletries on the floor or bend over to pick up them up. If you need a microwave, there's one in the lobby at the snack counter. The rooms and lobby were CLEAN. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Our room had a bay window with padded seats. I'm picturing how much fun a little one would have sleeping there. We just enjoyed the view. The bed was comfortable and the bath/shower facilities were more than adequate. Excellent shower pressure. The cable selection was terrible but not a big deal for us. The hotel is in a great location. Right off the highway and near the only Tim Hortons for 50 miles! The staff were extremely friendly and had easy access to things like a mop for our sticky floor, or batteries for the tv remote. The place even had a door in the back for our convenience. I hope we can stay here again. 06/23

Nope, first impressions are everything and this one failed. We come to Gaylord often (from Hawaii)…read moreand usually stay at another hotel but this trip brought our cat so needed a pet-friendly stay. Our other hotel graciously booked us into Baymont, when we arrived about 1pm it was cold and rainy and we had luggage in the exposed bed of the pickup. Front desk tatted-up lady the "Manager on Duty" named Michelle or something was a total c***. "No you can't check in, no I ain't got no rooms clean" and "no place for you to store luggage" (the empty dining area in front of her was dark and wide open). "I don't care what you paid for the room, it will be an extra $50/night for the cat", "I ain't got no way to change that", "you have to come back after 3pm". I've stayed in hotels enough to know that some are cleaned before 3pm and there's always a place to store a traveler's luggage while they wait. At least try to accommodate. We left. "No refunds allowed" she said as we walked out. We made a couple calls, refund obtained. Avoid this place.

When my husband and I got caught in a night-time snow storm while traveling, I asked the locals for…read morea cheap but good place to stay, and this was where they directed me. This place was obviously a well-loved mom & pop hotel at one time. It's a little worn around the edges now, but I had an acceptable night's stay there. Pluses: 1) They have hot water radiator heating system, and while it took a while for the room to warm up, I like water-based heating systems when it's cold and dry out. 2) It's reasonably priced, maybe $10 cheaper a night than big chain hotels. 3) The decor was subpar but the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Minuses: The "continental breakfast" was a wrapped donut and bad coffee, and the room & service are stripped down and basic. There is a TV with cable, but no in-room coffee pot, for instance. Bottom line: You can probably find a cheaper Mom & Pop place nearby or pay a little more for a chain hotel, but this place was fine in a pinch.
