The room was comfortably sized, and the bed was comfy and clean. The washing basin was located RIGHT by the door, which was a little weird... I usually see a closet there. But that was the weirdest thing in the place. The bathroom was clean and well stocked. Water pressure was just perfect. Coffee maker was a Keurig, so easy enough to use - but the coffee at the breakfast was quite good and we didn't need to use the Keurig in our room. The refrigerator was a bit bigger than what I've seen in most hotel rooms, which was nice. There was a little USB port for charging devices next to the lamp - but just one, with 2 ports. Breakfast was good enough to hold us over until dinner! Overall, a great stay and a comfortable night!

Booked a week (5 nights) for business purpose super convenient location to the conference center (Truck Country). I feel like the owners are trying but the hotel is outdated and in need or repairs and updates. The outside is clean and welcoming. But some small upgrades like new shower heads and better housekeeping would greatly help. Cons: Old, musty smelling, shower head was horrible all corroded from hard water and didn't spray decent. Furniture in the room was badly stained and soiled. Every table/counter surface needed a wipe down with disinfectant including the walls. Room frig never got cold, bathroom toilet was tiny, broken and old. The bed pillows were oddly tiny and the stinky soiled carpet needs to go. Pros: Serves free breakfast to guests with decent hours (6am-11am), cannot comment on quality because I did not utilize. Had a nice pool and hot tub, bonus actually in working order. Staff put me in a room away from the front desk, pool and lobby traffic area so I had a quiet stay. Best part of the room was the bed. Very comfortable and clean, there was a sheet and decent down comforter, not your standard thin or cheap sheets. While the pillows were very small the bed did have 5 pillows which was plenty for just one person.

No little half empty bottles to deal with.... Yeah! Highly recommend this property!

Here's the thing…read more I was on the verge of giving this five stars like so many others. I was here for a week, and for the vast majority of that week, was pleasantly surprised with the experience. But then, the last day happened. And that one interaction cost them three stars. I know what you're thinking - that's harsh. Trust me: you never get a second chance to make a first impression. First for context, I got the King Suite. The King Suite is basically a penthouse 1-bedroom. Top floor, I was right off the elevator. It's swank, it's visually appealing, and it's also very expensive. But I was willing to pay the money for a comfortable experience during a very difficult move. Here's where Hilton Garden Inn got it wrong - and if any of them read this, these are EASY things to fix. 1. they charge for breakfast. $20. I find this a joke. It's not that I can't afford it (the King Suite is very expensive, remember?), it's the principle. They should include breakfast at NO charge for the suites. 2. They got rid of the guest binder. You know, that binder that tells you about the locations and sights to see that used to be in every room? Not here. There's a small binder, but a waste of time. Also, the menu for the restaurant forces you to scan a barcode (that's another star off, by the way). 3. There's no work desk in the King Suite, which I find to be a joke given the cheaper rooms have it. There's plenty of wasted space where a desk could have easily been placed. 4. But the biggest issue: on the last day, it started to rain a bit, so I got my jacket out of the car, then went to get breakfast. "Natalya" essentially treated me like a criminal when I asked for a to-go tray (I find it to be inefficient and wasteful to do actual dishes for a quick breakfast). Constantly questioning about where I'm wanting to take the food (to my room MF'er!), nagging me when I went to get some salt/pepper from the table, didn't give me a carry tray, etc. Absolute worst experience, and the above could have been forgiven had this incident not happened. So, in summary: The hotel itself is nice. The basic hotel staff is nice. But you might get profiled and treated like a criminal - and I can't say for sure whether your skin tone has anything to do with it. All I can say is, for the thousands of dollars I spent at this hotel, I REFUSE to be treated that way.

Heather and Tom serve breakfast to all of their guests at a specific time. Everything is fresh and made to order from your menu choices. Guests are seated at tables of four, and it was delightful getting to know there others staying at the inn. The property is beautiful and there is a field with a horse, sheep and other animals. Heather and Tom make you feel right at home. They're friendly, and love to talk, but they're not intrusive. We enjoyed our relaxing stay at the Red Speckled Inn. I highly recommend it.

A look under the bed revealed even more. Disgusting. But wait. It gets worse. Few of the lights worked. Most flickered then a few turned on, like the Bates hotel. To top it off, the key card they gave me didn't work. The dude at the desk blamed me and said I must have put it by my phone. Again. I have never left a bad review anywhere.

There are a handful of and nice restaurants, taverns, coffee shops, unique stores. Personally recommended: Nitty Gritty Restaurant, Beans & Cream Coffee Shop. JJ Sewing Shop. JJ Stitches Quilt Shop. Security cameras around the inside/outside of the property. Breakfast had a dedicated person assigned to oversee things (***BRAVO***), not just the cook who is asigned 2 jobs (oversight, and food prep)! The housekeeping staff in the hallways were friendly. There was a reasonable level of cleanliness throughout the building. Building itself was well maintained, minus one point (see NEAS). The beds are very comfortable. OKAYS: Front staff were professional, efficient, and business-like in transactions but could have been more friendly and welcoming at check-in. Room was comfortable and reasonably clean (room edges could use some attention). We were greeted most of the time as we came and went past the front desk during our stay. A second TV in the breakfast room would make viewing easier from some locations (First-World issues!). A Kwik Trip is located just a couple of (walkable) blocks away. NEAS: The pool felt like a "fishbowl," with anyone accessing the lobby able to see in. No elevator. The breakfast room was clean but lackluster and overly utilitarian in appearance and feel. The middle of the hallway in front of Rm 221 is giving way; not visible, but you can feel it. The toilet/Tub/Shower room is small. Doorswing would hit one at the knees if sitting on the commode; and only clears the tub edge by a foot or so. The air system filters were dirty. VERY NEA: The hotel has chosen to include a Room Safe Fee. IMHO, this is a "junk fee" being used by locations as a free revenue stream that allows them to advertise and artificially appear cheaper per night than competing locations. The corporate level explanation is that "half of our guests like it / half do not." From personal experience, I have seen this ONLY in a couple of 5-star locations. I mostly see it in 2 and 2.5-star locations. Like others doing this, this fee is NOT reflected in online advertisement pricing; you only find out about it at check-in and can only get it removed by specifically asking for it to be removed by visiting the front desk upon check-out.
