Nice local hotel

Short trip to Indianola for a few days of work. Chose to stay at the Hotel Pommier because of the reviews and the local flair of the place. Everything was good accept for the refrigerator. Understandably the hotel turns them off when rooms are not in use to save on electricity, however there was a very distinct and unpleasant odor coming from the fridge. The odor did improve as the fridge cooled back down, but it made an impression.

Last minute stay with grand kiddos.

We stayed over night at the last minute. Price was good and everything was fine. I would suggest to use more fabric softener, because sheets were scratchy and I ask for queen beds but I think the beds were only full. That was disappointing. Breakfast was adequate. Overall it was a good stay.
