Definitely not as advertised
Very disappointed with the room we were given. I understand this is NOT a 4 star hotel, but the photos online showed an older, but clean hotel, so I booked a non-smoking room with 1 queen bed. We arrived to a dingy, run down, 2 double bed room that smelled like stale cigarettes. All through our first night there, we were getting fresh smelling cigarette smoke wafting into the room, from where I have no idea but almost made us ill. The second night was marginally better, but not by much. The towel I used for my shower also had 2 stains on it. Very disconcerting to say the least.

The office is very old and run down. I stayed on the second floor and the steps were full of snow and slippery. Room was decent - however very old and smelled like smoke. Beds and towels were clean and crisp. Room was large and spacious. Full cable channels. Bathroom taps leaked and were hard to use. I would not stay here again and would not recommend it to anyone.

I had a great stay at the Circle 5. The property manager was very kind and ensured I was setup to have a good night and stay at the motel. Suite was older, but very clean and worked well for the price.

This property was very run down. The rooms were crammed full of stuff....a full size stove and oven less than 3 feet from the end of the bed. Gap between the door and the door jam could easily allow bugs but most of all it didn't feel like a secure place at all. Sketchy digs.

The property is very old and outdated. The price was cheap and the room was clean. The owner was super nice and came up to our room to fix our tv and WiFi when we were having issues.

Our room was pretty well soundproof we weren't aware of any other I guess until we looked outside in the parking lot and saw all the vehicles that were parked there. The room was clean the bedding was crisp white sheets. The towels were as brand new.

Perfect for the quick family visit.
Just a quick trip to visit family and was looking for a quiet and affordable place to stay for the night after visiting. Check-in was efficient and quick with a helpful front desk. Room was clean and comfortable and was sufficient for the needs we had.

The building is run down ,railings on the stairways are broken ,no one has shoveled the snow off of the stairways ,the room smells bad (old),toilet seat is falling off,there is a 2/2 inch gap between the front door and the frame (snow comes in), it took 30 min for someone to come to the front desk for check in (he had to come from across town from another motel), all in all very poorly maintained and operated
