A bed and no breakfast
After I arrived I was informed that my payment did not cover breakfast. This came as a shock and left me disappointed. It spoiled my stay.
Room was clean and comfortable but tired. Parking was good. Access to town…

Questions about The Great Grubb

What time is check-in and check-out at The Great Grubb?

Check-in is from 4:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:30 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does The Great Grubb allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at The Great Grubb?

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.

Does The Great Grubb have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does The Great Grubb have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book The Great Grubb?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
