Although touted as remodeled, the room was rather shabby, the furniture and fixtures uncoordinated, rather "tired" looking. The motel is not new, and I discerned a musty odor upon opening the door. Service does not seem to be a focus for the proprietor, who, when asked to provide a wake-up call quipped: "do you see that alarm clock near the... more

I found the motel on the internet and emailed a question. Within a few minutes I recieved a phone call with the answers and I booked my room. To me the price was low, the room was smaller than a Holiday Inn, but big enough. The furnishings were antique looking and of good quality. There was comfortable space for a... more

Our stay at this property was ok. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The bed was king size, and the room was larger than we expected. The bathroom needed some attention, though. Some tiles in the shower were loose and a little moldy. Even though we paid only $64, I doubt we'd stay there again because of the shower. more

My wife and I along with another couple stayed here on our New England motorcycle trip. We found the accomodations very clean. The rooms were a bit small, but big enough for us. The motel location is great also. There any many restaurants and bars within walking distance. We paid $75 for our room and felt that we received fair... more

My wife and I stayed here in July 2005 and it was a nightmare!! First - the tourist bureau in town recommended this place - they must be getting a kickback because the owner (man) was a pig - not in attire but in attitude. Yes the place was clean (as the Tourist Bureau said it'd be) but there's a... more

This was the worst hotel experience I've ever had. The owner or front desk person (he claimed to be the owner) was so incredibly rude to us. I was traveling with a friend and we had mistakenly assumed that a "suite" meant that there would be a couch in addition to the bed. When we asked whether it was included,... more

I haven't even arrived at Kirkside, and I already don't like the place. The manager has been nothing but rude and surly on the phone ("take it or leave it" he says to me as i try to reserve something). Then when I called back to ask about cancellations, he tells me "You can't", instead of explaining the policy (14days... more

I have stayed at the Kirkside several times ... with each visit better than the previous one! Friendly service, clean cheerful rooms, lots of parking, and best of all is the entheusiastic greeting of the beautiful resident airdale Rumplestilskin! I was not the only repeat visitor on one of my visits .... I actually met up with someone who was... more

Beware of Know-it-All owner. Nice place But, don't expect any extras. What you see is what you get. Need a fan, bring your own. Wake up call, thats what alarm clocks are for. And if the air conditioner dosen't work, your on your own. But they'll tell you its brand new! Buyer Beware!! Paid for TWO nights, checked out after... more
