Springer Station

So many issues with this hotel: owner’s dogs were noisy, shared dirty bathroom with other guests, no way to control temperature in room- became uncomfortably warm, did not provide drinking cups in room or ice, rooms were all up a long flight of stairs. In general, hotel needed major repairs and cleaning. But if all you want is a bed for sleeping, then this is your place.

There are many people who have overly inflated expectations of what a hotel stay should be. The Springer Station takes those expectations and turns them on their head with a very characterful and charming experience. Sure, it's a shared bathroom place and the door knob on your room turns the wrong way but don't let that detract from the eclectic experience of staying in this historic building. The staff were pleasant enough, busying themselves with Halloween trick or treaters that evening. The facilities in the hotel were good with excellent Wifi. Lots of food options to buy for good prices downstairs ($1 a soda) The place was very quiet, not many folk staying this evening and I didn't see the owners / staff again after checking in but this never bothered me. There was something strange about our one night stay here...I can't quite place it. Perhaps it was the quiet town, the emptiness of the place, the whole creaky floor old building deal? Who knows but I enjoyed my experience here none the less. If you want something unusual and interesting then book this place but if you want a generic chain hotel experience - it's probably best to look elsewhere. I for one, love something different and I won't forget about my stay in Springer Station Hotel.

Fun place. I enjoyed the unique layout.
