We were looking in the travel coupon book and found this hotel. After a long day of driving we decided to stay here. We asked to see a room which seemed OK, but when we got our keys, they were to different rooms. We were with another family. On examination of the room we were in, above the door where glass should have been, was a board of wood that had buckled from weather (I'm assuming) which allowed large gaps for "anything" buggish to gain full access of your room. There were also large vents inside where more creatures could spend the daytime and come out in the night when it was nice and dark. The tub was literally black on the inside. The curtains were coated with yellow dirt (probably from smoke) although we were "technically" in a non-smoking room. The cover bedspread was also dirty and looked like it hadn't been washed in months/years! Our friends pulled back their sheets to find large baseball sized holes as well as a footprint and long hairs! We actually looked at 3 other rooms but couldn't allow ourselves to stay there and luckily, we were given a refund (we'll check out charge card though). We were told that the maid hadn't been there for a few days! The pool and hot tub were also closed for "cleaning", although after looking at the rooms I wouldn't have wanted to see the conditions they could have been in if they were up and running. Even our children were disgusted. We actually got back in our car and headed on to the next city! Please believe me when I say this is NO exageration...find another place to stay!

We stayed at the Canterbury Inn because it was advertised in the traveling coupon magazine. It advertised $40, but we ended up getting the room for $57, including tax. We got stuck in a snowstorm in the mountains, and it was too late for us to return our rental car at the airport, so we had to find somewhere cheap to stay at until the rental place opened in the morning.

It was worse than a motel 6. There was a cockroach running around our room. They charged us $10 for the extra bed that we didn't need, because supposedly they were sold out. Everything was old, and the bed & sheets were dirty.

This place is best for a trucker passing by who just needs to sleep and shower. Otherwise, it was filthy, nasty, disgusting.
