A lot of the amenities such as the pool and breakfast were closed down. The hotel was as expected, it did not impress but did not have bed bugs so I would say it was a good stay! Would stay again if I had to.

Fine but not very secure

Security is a problem. We called ahead to let them know we’d be checking in after hours and were given a code for a lock box in which we would find our key. What was in our lock box instead was the master key, meant for the front desk girl the next morning. Our room keys were in the other lock box. Oops. Good thing we weren’t thieves or worse. Mistakes happen, but considering the outer entrance wasn’t even locked, the slide lock in our room had been busted in and never repaired, and our window screen looked like it had been pried open at some point and never repaired, I think security just isn’t a priority at this property. Just be aware.

Always have a wonderful stay, the staff is really nice and try hard to make things wonderful. This is a older hotel and with that comes lots of character. They are slowly renovating rooms so be patient with them. Small town with a cute hotel.

Staff was friendly, room had a fridge that worked. Staff friendly and helpful. Due to seasonal, weekly rentals (construction crews) there were no pictures on the walls, wallpaper peeling off the walls. Looked like anything that wasn't nailed down was stolen.Not sure how the room temp was regulated. There was a portable floor standing ac unit and another unit, maybe for heat??? No breakfast, continental or otherwise offered. Had to get soap, cups, from the front desk. Was told where to park to keep an eye on my vehicle. All in all a pretty sketchy place. But was clean and hotel staff worked hard.

I wasn’t interested in swimming on my visit: however, to have an indoor pool that is only open during the summer because it is not heated is ridiculous! Lots of people, esp with kids, would benefit from the use of the pool year around. What a waste of it’s potential function and value.

The property was very outdated,dirty, and beds were uncomfortable. Many things were out of order like the secured access doors,vending and pop machines ,also the hot tub. The carpet was pullong up and rolled in areas, tacked down in others.The smell was musty, water damaged and stained ceilings and walls. The front desk lady was nice and friendly. The parking lot was very dark at night. The room was dirty and they took $20 bucks off. The price was expensive for such a rundown slum hotel. I was there for a funeral and the choices are very limited in this area.

The Buffalo Lodge is perfectly located for visiting my family in the area. The dining options are close by, and the main grocery store is across the street. Our room was clean and comfortable, we appreciated the larger sized refrigerator. We saw a review from someone else complaining that the bathroom door wouldn't close...we must have had that room...it was disappointing that it's still not fixed. The carpets in the stairwell going to the second floor and on the second floor need to be replaced, they smelled awful...almost like cat pee. They do allow pets..so not sure if that's why. We were there during the week so there was no hot breakfast, just a selection of packaged grits, oatmeal and poptarts along with a community coffee pot. For being the only gig in town they really could use some upgrades. We may need to go VRBO next time.
