The room was clean, nice bedsheets, not a bad mattress. Breakfast was good, parking was readily available; shower was amazingly hot. Hotel's staff was very courteous and nice. The only downside is that hotel itself is quiet old, so if you don't have super high expectations, you'll like it there

We really loved it, we came on a motorcycle trip. It was so safe and we had a great time. It was clean, well maintained, and the breakfast wasn’t bad. The service was great. The front desk person, Andy, was very helpful. We’re coming back for my birthday in may. Can’t wait!!

Room was great and staff were fine. Place was quiet. The only problem we had was our smoke alarm battery started to beep every 30 seconds at about 1 am. We took battery out but this did not stop problem as it was hard-wired. We called night manager, but they could not locate a battery so we had to move to another room at 5:30 am. The front desk gave us a $25.00 refund but I feel it should of been more like 1/2 of the night's cost.
