The wonderful couple that runs this hotel are truly wonderful. They love the community and want you to truly enjoy your stay… if anything is missing or you need extra supplies politely ask they are more than willing to accommodate. I’ve been treated so kindly while traveling with my children

Could use improvement to

Staff was very nice and check in was easy. The property is easy to get to and convenient, but very old and dingy. Walls are paper thin so it’s a bit noisy. Cost was a bit high for the quality of stay.

Good enough, nothing got stolen

It was ok. Breakfast was not the time listed on website making it to late for my travel to work. Office chair in my room had parts protruding from the seat. Shower had good pressure but intended for 5' person rather than a 6'1" gentleman such as myself. Car never got broke into and did not lose anything from my room though, they did enter my room even with the do not disturb sign on the door... Price is good.

Our sheets on both beds were dirty & had stains on them along with the mattress pad, was disgusting! Went to the office to see about getting clean ones. Waited in there for several minutes as there was no one at the desk or to be found. Finally someone showed up & told them the situation & he said he would call "housekeeping" to bring me "clean" sheets. When "housekeeping" brought me sheets they were all waded up like they grabbed them out of the dirty clothes. When putting them on the bed found lots of hairs all o er them, so not convinced they were actually "clean" sheets?! When we checked out I asked the same gentleman that checkus in if there was anyway we could get a discount for having to deal with that situation. Like no one expects or wants to oay for a room & then have to cha ge your own sheets as soon as you get there because there dirty. He said the "manager",who I think was himself, said wouldn't give me a discount for that? I asked why & he said because they brought me "clean" sheets really fast after complaining!? Like seriously! Guess you get what you pay for! Terrible management & disgusting place! I would NOT waste tour money on this business! Worth paying a little more to get clean sheets to sleep on!
