2-Star Hotels in Lakewood

It was a little difficult to find. Its located in a very nice neighborhood, very clean and pleasant looking. The hotel itself looks older. Painted over lots of times. I reserved a smoking room with a queen bed because i only needed an overnight stay. Its a small room, with tv, ac unit, and a bathroom and shower stall. The room said it included breakfast, which was an absolute bonus as that meant one less thing to stop for. I was notified the following morning that breakfast was not being offered vecause 'of covid' and they hadn't offered breakfast in 2 years. In the breakfast room there were numerous rolls of what looked like old carpet. I was not made aware of this when checking in. The sheets were stained, as were bits of the carpet in the room. There was also no garbage can in the room - which is more of a convenience thing I suppose, and no refrigerator or microwave (I was not expecting these amenities, but I was hopeful). The room included some towels and toiletries along with a hairdryer which I did not use. I think this is canon for ”you get what you pay for”.

The only good thing about this hotel was the staff. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. We were treated with kindness and made to feel welcome. Now the rest of the visit...this was the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. It was part of a package deal that included tickets to the Rock and Roll HOF which is the only reason we booked it. The landscaping had not been maintained and was basically an overgrown jungle. We had a total of 3 rooms for our group. Every room had multiple issues but I will list them all together: no cups, no coffee, no cream/sugar, mold in the bathroom, no ice bucket, hair dryer and coffee maker that didn't work (hair dryer actually shot out sparks), a twin size blanket on a queen bed, broken lock on room door....I could go on but I think you understand our disappointment.
