Hotel rooms are a commodity and it's understandable that the price is going to fluctuate given the…read morelaw of supply and demand. We stayed here last year and paid $110.78 for a night and returned this year to pay $146.06 for the same exact room. County fair? Rodeo? Little League World Series? Inflation perhaps, nope, in fact I don't know why the price jumped $35.28 except to note there were a lot of road construction folks around. So, I suspect the summer highway repairs will move down the road next year, but I will to, so enjoy your windfall.

The manager and staff are rude and incompetent. I had made a reservation online and had noted that…read moreI was bringing my 2 dogs. After a stressful 13 hour drive, I checked in with the clerk. I stated I had my dogs with me so that she could add the correct charge. She then stated that the room they had reserved for me was not pet-friendly. I asked what my options were; she recommended the hotel next door and stated she would charge back my card since she had already run it. The charge back never occured and I had to spend double on a smoking room at the hotel next door. I called the hotel several times to get a solution and finally received a call back from the manager over a month later. He asked me how it was his fault, they had strict pet policies and had a room for me that I chose not to take. I stated that even if I had accidentally left out that I was bringing dogs, his clerk had said she would charge back my card, and that I wasn't allowed to stay there. I was frustrated but polite to the clerk, and to the manager when he finally called. He again asked how is that his fault, and then proceeded to call me several times to harass me even though I said we obviously weren't going to agree and there was no point in continuing the conversation. I have never had an issue like this before. I work in customer service and try very hard not to be THAT person.

We didn't stay for breakfast. The only issues we found with our stay was a large stain on the comforter and the room was very musty. I would recommend that they keep the air conditioner on when the room is not being used. We would come back again if passing through again.

It's cheap, it's locally owned, and it's run by nice people who go out of their way to take care of you. So skip the chains and head on into town to stay at the Blue Haven.

I decided to stay at this hotel based on the one other review of it on Yelp. What a disappointment!…read more It smelled musty, peeling paint on the doors, a very scary shower, a dripping faucet, not one hanger in the equally scary closet. It was all I could do to stay the night instead of just giving up my money and finding a decent place to sleep. I see why they make you pay upfront. I'm not that picky (I've been in the army and the back roads of China), but this is pretty bad.

I would never go near that nasty place again. The mold around the seal on the fridge was so nasty…read morethat it rotted the seal so you could see inside the seal and OMG... it was full of fuzzy, black, thick, pest dung, filled with black mold I almost puke. When I ask the drunk hostess that was cleaning rooms during dinner time while her baby was left in her room she said she lived in. When I went and found her she was in a bathroom across the hall from the room I was put in with her shirt pulled up around her bra, exposing too much while her music on her phone was playing kinda loud. So I approached her and asked politely if I could get a different fridge and she went into the room to see what I was talking about. So I showed her the nasty fridges he left and came back and she said her boyfriend was actually there and she would have him come exchange it out. I then asked her about just changing rooms because it didnt look like that one had been cleaned. She said I'll be right back so I waited patiently for her to come back. Then I heard a knock on the door so I answered it and she just handed me her phone. I said what is this and she told me the owner was on the phone and wanted to speak to me. So I took the phone and as soon as I said hello she's saying that me staying there wasnt gonna work because I was causing issues because supposedly my dog who is blind had been barking and disturbing all the guess in the hotel. There was maybe 4 vechicles max in the parking lot and one didnt look like it even moved. So I didnt agree with her and told her the only reason she was kicking me out was because her drunk hostess lied to her and told her I was causing issues which again was a bold face lie. I had 30 minutes to leave the property or she was gonna charge me with trespassing charges. The drunk hostess left with that rude owner on the phone I mentioned to the owner i was calling the cops and she got even more pissed off. Which made me think they must get a few calls from this place. They left and I right away called the cops just to cover my ass.
