Bear Hotels & Accommodations

The desk staff and breakfast staff were friendly and accommodating. The hallway rugs were noticeably coming up at the seams in places. The Bathroom, while serviceable, needed some attention (ie the sink faucet, while functional, was not secured to the sink base)

Type of building is last-generation (room doors giving directly onto the exterior). Generally functional, but maintenance had obviously been spotty for some time. Rooms and bath were clean and functional; bed was excellent. WiFi was fast and cable TV better than average. Small details had been overlooked, however. Breakfast service was virtually nonexistent.

We’ve had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would really recommend it! The beds are comfy, the breakfast is great and the staff are wonderful!

We stayed at this hotel based on reviews and because of its proximity to UD for graduation weekend. Hotel rates were increased everywhere, so we felt the value wasn't worth it. The location of the hotel is convenient--right off 95 and a few miles to campus. The hotel was clean and fairly comfortable. The rooms were tiny and had a musty feel. The bathrooms were clean, but small. The temperature control wasn't always working well. The breakfast could have used more healthy options, such as Greek yogurt and more seasonal fresh fruit. The breakfast area was clean. The ”fitness center” was a complete joke. The hotel shouldn't advertise it as an amenity. One treadmill, one non-functioning elliptical, and one broken down and dangerous universal do not constitute a fitness center. It is a liability. We've traveled to many hotels that have much better and well-maintained facilities. This hotel is adequate for a one-night stay

It’s very simple, but the milk and bread are still available and can be eaten. Parking is very convenient, with a large parking lot, 16 knives a day. The room is quite large, and laying three large boxes on the ground does not affect your normal indoor walking activities. No extra bed needed, we booked a twin room, a family of three, and they are all big, very loose. Especially the service staff of the hotel is very good and very warm. We arrived at the middle of the night, showed me the booking procedure, let us check in early.

The hotel is very new and the view is good. Finally, it feels good. It is rare to experience it for a while. The room facing the main street will be a bit dazzling at dawn, but the shading of the curtains is still OK. The location is very good.

The Sheraton name used to mean luxury. Not so much anymore now that it is merely one of Marriott's many and frequently indistinguishable brands. Let me say my room -- a suite really -- was huge ad comfortable. But only one, wire-mesh-backed chair to sit in at the work table. Small towels. A bathroom nightlight that was way too bright and could not be turned off. Still. overall, comfortable and with a fridge and a microwave. One you step out of your room, however, things fall apart. One of the elevator's floor display was burned out so you couldn't tell where you were, which was o compounded when it refused to stop on any floor and I was trapped on it for 15 minutes. And when I used the emergency phone, it rang 15 times before someone picked it up and said they only did so ”because they were passing by.” The hotel is, it appears, seriously understaffed. The lobby is a faded reminder of more bustling times. The revolving door is so slow one could die of old age in it. The decor is in need of updating. IT just seems slightly faded and frayed around the edges...

Inexpensive and cost-effective, it is easy to reach the highway 95. Good place to pass by and rest.

Wow. For a few dollars more I could have done so much better. You should too. They only service rooms on Tuesday and Thursday according to the obnoxious front desk agent but failed to tell me or anyone else. Horrible hotel. Worse than motel 6. Heck, the motel 6 at least has towels. You can't even get TOWELS at this place. The owners are running a roach motel. Worn out furniture, doors that have to be slammed to lock and clientele that is disruptive and makes noose until 3am coming and going. Can feel every spring in the bed, and oh yeah...save your towels and heaven forbid don't soil your sheets or anything...cause you won't get more. Priceline, and tripadvisor give thus place a WAY WAY WAY WAY TOO HIGH star rating. The motel6 has better standards and at least they're cheap. DON'T EVER STAY HERE. Ever. Oh yeah, the ownership is hiding behind the lame excuse of 'covid' but no longer have any other mask or sanitary protocols in place. It's just owners who are lazy who got used to hiding behind covid to make more money with less people...and it's time to grow up and move on, man up and start running this hotel again. The halls are nasty and smell funny. Lobby is dark and dingy....they just don't care. One day left on my stay, and wish I hadn't booked third party.
