Nice little country style hotel
The hotel is luxurious or perfect, but it's awesome for the price we paid. 1. It's welcome and cute outside; 2. The staff is very welcoming and friendly; 3. My husband really loved the special parking spot for the veteran; 4.The breakfast offered many choices: cereal, boiled eggs, bread, bagel, juice, waffle, yogurt, fresh fruits, apple sauce, and cheese sticks. I'm glad I didn't waste money on those fancy expensive hotels.

Is an older property that seemed reasonably well maintained and we found everything to be clean. There was a huge lack of outlets in the room - providing an outlet strip would have been really helpful to avoid having to plug a light or whatever to plug in any personal accessories. The room air conditioner was unusually loud. I like white noise and it kept me from hearing any other guest or parking lot noise, so worked for me, but may irritate others.

I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of this two-star hotel. The bed was comfortable, there was a nice desk, fridge, and microwave in addition to the lovely coffee machine. The shower was nice, maybe just a little bit on the narrow side. The room was clean. The few downsides are that the walls were not very soundproof, and so I heard conversations and bumps fairly frequently; also, there was no overhead lighting, so the room was only dimly lit by a few lamps. The staff were very helpful and friendly!

Did not like the stained carpet which was everywhere. Didn’t even look like they had tried to clean it. Otherwise place was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was more than I expected but mostly foods I couldn’t eat. (Need gluten and sugar free) There was tea, which was great but only herbal, nothing with black tea in it. Noisy neighbors one afternoon.

Interesting retro feel
Very friendly and helpful staff, in an older, but well maintained facility. They have a waffle maker, that isn’t as common anymore. The beds were comfortable. Room 110 has the smallest toilet I have ever seen, and the curtain in the walk-in shower was too short, and didn’t contain the water very well.

It was not the cleanest. I swear I killed a live bed bug crawling on the floor and found 2 more dead ones around the bed. Staff were friendly. It appeared to be a family owned business. It was kinda outdated. We went and washed everything and pray we don’t have any hitchhikers someone I didn’t see!!
