St Lawrence Hotel

No longer a Quality Inn, this hotel continues to hide behind the good reputation of former ownership. The St. Lawrence Hotel features inoperative equipment, inconsistent pricing, unfriendly management and a combination of permanent housing with paying short term guests. On the plus side, there are washers and dryers that are free to use, free parking, free breakfast and a convenient location in the town center. Do not be fooled by the attractive lobby and the Quality Inn signage and branding. This independent property is not up to the standards of Choice Hotels (and I do not know why the corporation tolerates the ongoing use of its name.) If you do stay there, check your charges daily. Prices are subject to change during your stay without notification.

I met 3 different staff members during my short stay at this hotel. They were the best part of the facility. All were friendly, helpful and accommodating. The hotel itself isn't bad. But I wouldn't say it's good either. The lobby is nice and the hallways are nice. My room was an acceptable level of clean. It was however very small. I was ok with its size as it was just me in the trip. I also accepted the smaller room from the desk clerk who was good enough to let me know the third party I booked through booked me a smoking room. The hotel parking lot was very cramped with difficult turning angles. The exterior stairwell from the parking lot was very sketchy and dirty and as I found out after climbing a flight of stairs you couldn't access the hotel from the outside. The breakfast was a typical selection, nothing extraordinary but it tasted fine and was filling. I wouldn't say I would want to spend a lot of time here. But as a short overnight stay it was acceptable.
