I have several photos of damaged throughout the room. The heater vent was filthy and when the heat was operating, it produced a very unpleasant odor. The owner took a screen shot of my credit card information with his personal phone. They were nice folks. However, their way of operating is very archaic.

Website is incorrect, there is no pool or hot tub. It’s under major construction. The heater in our room made a loud bang and started smoking and didn’t work after that. We asked for another room (they were not full, only 6 cars in parking lot) instead he brought in a small space heater. The mattress and pillows had to be as old as the hotel. Very uncomfortable. No soft water. The price should be lowered a lot to reflect what you get. Will never return.

Terrible place to stay
Terrible place to stay. They have signs all over saying if you break this rule you will be fined so much for each rule. How about they clean up their act. Holes in lampshade, black hair in sink, laminate flooring needed sweeping, bedding dirty black specks all over sheets, walls needed patching, pillows very worn out hard as a rock. Outdated rooms would have been ok if the place was clean. A total dump not worth what they charge.

Not happy about our stay at Eastwood. They lost my reservations. Thankfully they had a room available, The room was comfortable enough. The floor was dirty under the beds. My Grandchildren found a cigarette & some red capsules under the bed. The shower curtain had many holes in it. I did report that & it was changed immediately. The pool was cold & had gravel & some other sediment on the bottom. In the morning the staff tried to enter our room with her keys. Thankfully I had the extra lock flipped across so she couldn't enter. She quickly said she was there to tell us check-out was 11am. It was only 9:30am. We won't ever stay there again.

Can't recommend this place to my worst enemies
Where to begin? Hotel "lost" my reservation made weeks in advance, tried to send me to another hotel 45min away. No continental breakfast (as advertised) and pool has apparently been out of order for several months/years. Front desk lady clearly didnt want to be bothered from her phone to help us with any concerns. Gave off some bigtime Norman Bates vibes too...She eventually found us a substitute room with holes in the wall and stains on the towels and bed sheets. Looking outside the property the was trash all over the place and it was obvious that several rooms had people living in them and/or intended to stay there for months at a time. There was also NO STAFF available between 11pm-7am each day, so forget it if you fibd issue with your room after being out and about all day. Just a sign on the front door that states: Sorry, No Vancy Seems like this "hotel" is a front for money laundering, because nobody could be this terrible at every aspect of what they do and still remain in business... If I had to say something nice about this place: at least there was running water?? But even that was mislabeled in terms of hot vs cold... laughably horrible experience. Wouldnt recommend this place to my worst enemies!

Go to the next town...
The motel is quite run down. I would not take my wife there. The desk attendant was never at the desk, and didn't have much to say when he was. There is one restaurant within walking distance, and I didn't even see another one as I drove around looking for a safe-looking liquor store. The town is a dump.

Definitely not staying there again if I can avoid
Not impressed. Room wasn't disgusting, but wasn't clean either. Multiple apparently coffee or beverage spills on walls by night stands, even though it was non smoking room there were what looked like ash burns in various places on the walls. Sink had big crack in it, surprised it didn't leak. Bathroom fan and AC vents totally covered in thick layer of dust. Everything just seemed grimy. and overall appearance of being run down. Pool was still closed "due to Covid" even after this long, even though it was full of water? Was noisy most of the night, doors slamming and loud talking in the halls. Just overall was not someplace I'd ever want to stay at again. Only picked this hotel because there were no other rooms available in Brainerd and this was the closest available.

Great location, quiet area. It looked like someone had emptied the trash out of their car near the side entrance. Trash littered the lawn, not the fault of the staff but it didn't look very nice. There was a problem with the room keys too. Though the rooms were clean, the carpet in the room needed to be replaced. Expedia said the beds were king size and they were not. They were very comfortable though.

Go the extra distance to Brainerd or Little Falls
This hotel was built over 23 years ago with no updates and it shows. Non-smoking rooms have “smoking smell”; bathrooms smell like urine and there was no proof that any type of COVID-19 enhanced cleaning was done.

it was ok
Con: The bed was uncomfortable, the AC didn’t work in our room. We waited upfront to check in for a while, there wasn’t anyone up there. I was kind of upset to discover upon arrival that it was an extra $15 for my dog, and they didn’t offer the continental breakfast that they advertised. Our door didn’t have a lock on the inside. The vending machines were completely sold out. The hot tub wasn’t very hot, and the pool was super cold. Pro: Mohammed was very nice. He let us check our late for no extra charge. The pool was open, so that was nice.
