Staff was courteous. The Inn is an old establishment and really need to get rid of all the carpeting because the smell was pretty bad and with my allergies, well, made me sick. Don’t need carpeting in the rooms at all or if, need to replace the old, musty smelling carpet.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was nice and large but the lack of black out shades made it bright and hard to sleep in the morning. Was disappointed the pool was closed tho the weather was still quite warm. The mini golf course was beyond run down and neglected in need of much repairing. Most of the light poles either didn't work or were broke and on the ground wich wasn't the safest. There was also a man hole cover that was open and very unsafe

Helpful staff and clean room. Nice location if you are driving. On the negative side, they are renovating the pool which could take some time (my visit October 2025) and the miniature golf is playable but needs renovation itself. Also, the shower dripped when off. Minimal breakfast.
