The room was very clean, and the staff was very nice. This is the place to stay if you're visiting Shipshewana and don't want to stay directly in the heart of Amish Disney. You're 2 minutes away from it, but far enough away for a very quiet and pleasant stay.

The hotel was beautiful and clean. My only complaint is the gluten free option was not good at all. You need to have a gluten free bread option for breakfast.
