It’s a rebranded Super 8

Cobblestone is usually a go to for me but this is a Super 8 that closed and they apparently just rebranded it. I’ve stayed at some well kept Super 8s, this definitely wasn’t one of them. Doesn’t look like they’ve done much to improve the conditions.

Thank goodness we were only in this building less than 12 hours. The building smelled bad. There were a LOT of people just seemingly loitering around the parking lot. The room was SO hot and stuffy when we arrived. Stains on the pillows and bathtub. Someone had tied a plastic bag around the smoke detector. The tv looked grainy. But…it’s a convenient location for The Lost Island.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately the halls and elevator were filthy. Literaly crushed coffee cups and qtips on the floor. When we got to our room it smelled, and was hot and muggy. We found hair and a small ant IN OUR BED and a few mystery stains on our sheets. Thankfully no bedbugs. Everyone had a verey difficult night sleeping bc we felt so unclean. I'm not one to leave bad reviews, but this was NOT a comfortable stay at all.
