If you want fancy and room service, then go to those high prices five star chains. This is a great, inexpensive place to spend a night or two during your travels. The owners are very nice and helpful. Everything works, from the air conditioner, to the tv. The mattress is one of the best I have slept on in a hotel.

The web page this motel has presented is very deceiving, it was not kept up at all, the weeds were over growing everything, the room was not clean, we would not even take a shower here because the tub was that filthy. The room on the web site shows pretty walls and bedspreads, no bedspreads and the wallpaper is peeling. I post this only because it is best to check travel sights such as this one. It you don't see any comments on the place you intend to stay, then there is a reason. Do not go by just the owners web site, lesson learned!

We ended up deciding to stay an extra night because of the weather going outlr direction. We did not try the restaurant here though, so that I can not speak of. The place was an old textile mill back in the day, so the industrial atmosphere is still evident. In more pleasant weather, it's close enough to walk up to shops or other restaurants. The lobby is warm and inviting. It was a nice place to go out and sit in front of the fireplace and relax. We will definitely be back!!! We love this place.

Two weeks ago, a major disaster for our family. Our son's…read morewedding and reception were at this hotel. Checking day......Guaranteed check at 3pm. We arrived at 2pm. At 3pm, still no room.......we had four rooms, but the party had pretty much the entire hotel. At 4pm, still no room....but someone walked in the door at 4:05 and they received a room. At 4:15 again, I went to the front desk. Up to this point "Dave" was helping us. He was busy and an older taller lady with long dark & gray hair "helped" us. This is where it got ugly. The lady was the rudest hotel person I have ever met. I asked for answers to why and when. All she did was give me a nasty smirk and I actually told her to remove that smirk. I asked for the Manager, she said the Manager could not do anything about it. I asked again, within 15 minutes we had the Manager. We explain the guarantee we received when booking the Wedding and that we had a pre-wedding party to get to an an hour. She said they were having staffing issues and our four rooms have not been released yet. I informed her, I went to our rooms and the doors were open. The rooms were clean. She explained they have been inspected as complete yet. I explained to her that people have walked in and received rooms. I explained to her she needs to swap out rooms for people standing in the lobby vs. people who have not arrived. 15 minutes later we had three rooms. While standing with the manager as she clicked on her computer, I heard another guest ask the tall long haired lady, "What is going on?, Why aren't rooms ready" The same rude lady behind the counter which smirked at me...........Told the other guest, "It's none of your business." Wow. I thought her husband was going to jump over the counter at Ms. Tall & Rude. The next day I caught a room cleaner in the hallway and said they did not have to do a complete clean on our room. Just give us towels and coffee. We received NOTHING. Hotel Millwright way over promised and way under delivered. I'm shocked at the lady behind the counter. Dave (behind the counter) was nice.. The Manager did not have her arms around the operation. She made people stand in the lobby for an hour and a half while rooms were available, just not reassigned. Regarding the reception.......the facility was nice. However, certain food items ran out before all guests were fed. The bar was understaffed and the lines were long. Hope this review finds many people and saves you from the Millwright.

She was professional, but kind of cool and not particularly friendly or conversational when I attempted to engage about the local area, the hotel, etc. The other reason for a one star deduct is that there is just about nothing else conveniently located to the hotel. Food, etc, you are basically on your own. No restaurants or anything. Each of those things merit a half star deduction in my mind, total of one down. I'd stay again. Likely it had just been a long day for the person checking us in. The room was very nice, clean, etc. Excellent access to the highway. 4/5 for sure, which is pretty good.

These are the sorts of accoutrement one would expect at a $225/night urban hotel but not in a small, inexpensive establishment, where a single occupancy room w/queen-size bed cost a mere $65 a night! This place is a hidden gem that's well worth seeking-out; it's a bit off the beaten-path of the interstates but if you need a place to stay in Clinton County -- this is surely a good option.
