Renovations needed (fast)

I read reviews (as I always do) before reserving a hotel. When I arrived I was surprised at the high ratings this hotel received. Hotel is somewhat dated and not worth the price. Staff was curteous but my room (#375) smelled like urine, there were (huge) stains on the mini couch, and a very noticealbe hole that looked like the ceiling was dropping. In addition the floors had huge stains througout the entire room that was very visable when you first walk in the room.
Considering the convenient location in conjuncion with the Casino I would think that this hotel would offer much better rooms to attract potential customers. My suggestion, for the money, stay somewhere that has made updates in the last 20 years and avoid this place.

Purpose of trip was to go to Presque Isle casino, shuttle service was great and the
driver was very helpful. Bananas were only fruit in breakfast area but girl also
kept the breakfast very clean. Water was very hot in bathroom, should have had
some warning about it and tub needed strips so wasn't so slippery.
Pool not too convenient but was okay. Would go back.l
Somewhat overrated

This property was rated 4 stars when we booked it. 4 stars is a big reach.
This is an older property in a less than premium location. The surroundings are a sea of asphalt, landscaping is minimal, the exterior decor is an inexpensive rebuild done some time ago.
Public spaces are minimal carved out of the first floor. The decor is decidedly down scale and the furniture fixtures and equipment all show wear and tear.
Check in was quick and efficient at 11 PM when we arrived. I gave the clerk my name and she handed me the pre-prepared key card without delay.
The room we had was quite large by today's standard. Renovated maybe 10 years Ago. While generally clean everything was worn and could use updating or replacement..
The A/C system was effective but the simplest system. We were unable to run the fan continuously while the A/C was on.
The room seems to be OK in terms of sound shielding. We could hear the highway a couple of hundred yards away but it was not bad, if we could have run the A/C fan it would not have been audible.
In the morning I did not take a shower as it seemed there was no hot water. I let it run for a few minutes but it never warmed up.
The continental breakfast that was available was OK. Cold cereal, juice, toast and small pastries, some fruit ? and of course coffee and tea.
All in all as an economy property it was an OK value. Certainly not 4 stars. But it served us fine for a quick overnight stop

The front desk clerk was very friendly and efficient. Check in took about one to two minutes.The check out time was alittle longer,but then the phone was ringing off the hook and there was another party being waited on at the same time. When we needed extra towels the staff brought them up within half an hour. We were very pleased with our stay.
