What a dump!

The worst room I have ever stayed in. It should be a crime with how deceiving the pictures are. The room looked like it hadn't been cleaned since the new owners took over. Hotels.com should disassociate themselves with this establishment. It will be shut down by the board of health.

Made the regrettable mistake of not reading the reviews on this property before booking. On review says “If you’re looking for a place that combines the charm of a haunted house with the ambiance of a truck stop bathroom, look no further than the Downtown Dover Inn”. Sadly, this description doesn’t even begin to capture the full extent of its deplorable conditions. From the overwhelming stench and lack of cleanliness in the room to serious safety concerns throughout the property … this place should be torn down! Also, very disappointed in Expedia for continuing to associate with and promote this property. It’s unacceptable that a platform I have trusted would list accommodations in such unacceptable condition.

Horrible. I signed a paper saying there would be a fee if the room was smoked in. The room smelled like it had been smoked in for 50 years. Overpowering! I told the clerk, and he said he wouldn’t charge me. Didn’t offer me a room that didn’t stink. Our room door was open when we got there. Reason being it didn’t lock and if you gave it a good push, it would open. There was a pubic hair in the tub. There was also no handle to turn the shower on and off. The pool looked like you would leave with a yeast infection. Will never go there again.

If you’re looking for a place that combines the charm of a haunted house with the ambiance of a truck stop bathroom, look no further than Downtown Dover Inn. The corridor leading to my room looked like the set of a low-budget crime drama. Faded carpet, chipped paint, and a vibe that screamed “don’t linger.” The door barely closed, and the only thing welcoming me was the smell of despair. Lighting: The lampshade had stains that looked like they were part of a forensic investigation. If you’re into abstract art made of mildew and mystery fluids, this place is a gallery. Security? I had to plug the bottom of the door with towels to keep the cold air out. I didn’t book a camping trip—I booked a motel. And speaking of guests, there were actual people loitering outside my room yelling into their phones like they were auditioning for a crime drama. The air vent was hanging open like it was trying to escape. Behind it? A dark cavity that probably leads to Narnia or a raccoon family reunion. Bonus: the wall around it was cracked like it owed someone money. Bottom line: Great location if you want to walk to dinner. Terrible if you want to sleep, breathe, or feel safe. Stay anywhere else unless you enjoy discomfort and regret. don’t be fooled by the pictures they have on their website

Don’t stay here

Tv remote not working, no chain lock on door did not feel safe, it’s basically like a homeless shelter, people doing drigs in parking lots teens walking around barefoot, staff on personal phone by pool. Did not try pool because vibe was weird seemed clean enough but like the soaps and lotions were small disposable type but had not been changed out they weee used.

There’s a sign at the counter indicating that there’s breakfast starting at 7 AM and it also states online but there is no breakfast offering. When you stood in the shower, the water would rise around your ankles. The walls are thin beds are reasonably comfortable and it was good for late arrival and early departure but overall a pretty mediocre place to stay.
