The room was full of stink bugs. I spent a majority of my night trying to get rid of them. I could hear them flying around me while I tried to sleep. I saw several of them crawling all over the walls and ceilings. It was disturbing and made it hard to sleep.

The room size was fine. There was a stain on one of the chairs and we were only given two towels. Also, the night lights on of the beds didn't work. The restaurant was nice for lunch but part of the reason that I got the room was bc they offered a bar, restaurant and package good store on the premises. Despite the fact that we stayed on a Saturday night, we were disappointed to find that everything was closed by 9 p.m. This was especially surprising and disappointing since they were near a professional baseball stadium, another reason why we selected this room. The desk service was nice enough. I would recommend the restaurant before a baseball game but I would probably stay at another nearby hotel with similar facilities, especially if you like to contribute the fun at a bar or restaurant after the game.

Simply: You get what you pay for! You can see through the rottig holes in the entry door. Bathroom window repaired with tape and doesn’t lock. Heating/air conditioning unit so loud, there was no real sleep to be had. Pay the money and go somewhere else!

Dont stay at Rips Country Inn
Our room was clean but very old and rundown. No coffee, no hairdryer. Staff indifferent and difficult to reach. Poison ivy growing through the wooden sidewalk. 1 towel and 1 washcloth per room. No ice bucket then you have to ask for ice. Staff acts suspicious of you. We will absolutely not stay there again. This is their cash cow but they dont invest or upkeep.

Okay if you're desperate
About as basic as a room can get. No bath mat, no extra towels, a container for tissues in bathroom but it was empty. No water glasses, no laundry bag, certainly no coffee. I suppose the rooms are fumigated regularly since the only cockroaches I saw were dead.
