Windsor Hotel

8/10 Good
"This hotel is a little rough around the edges but it's a very good value with the cleanest, most comfortable beds I've ever slept on! EVER! I've stayed there twice now and the bed was just as comfy as the first time i stayed. The bathroom was okay with the usual issues of tile that needs regrouting. I grabbed a towel rack getting out of the bathtub and it came right out of the wall! Hence, a little rough around the edges. I'm hoping they change the carpet in the hallway that is way past it's prime. They have a great restaurant attached to the hotel and a nice outdoor seasonal pool. I'm sure I'll be coming back in the summer for a place to entertain my six year old granddaughter who lives in town!"
