Unique location with everything we needed for our short visit. Moon pies and RC cola made my son quite happy as well as the Krispy Kream. Beds were comfortable and parking was simple.

The room that we used had a door that was difficult to open, the air conditioning fan would not shut off so that the floor was very moist and slippery, the bathroom fan was loud and would not shut off either. The neon sign in front, which is such a vintage wonder was missing several lights, which makes the place look uncured for.
