Well, this was once my favorite place to overnight when doing a cross country run. But I have not been here in a few years and it has been sold to individuals who obviously doesn't love it as much as the previous owner. It is no longer the gem it once was. Dirty carpet, broken chairs and a bed that is firmly resting against an ancient baseboard heater, which looks unsafe. On the plus side- a clean bathroom. I am quite sure I will never stay here again The price was about the same as I paid for a nice room at a Hampton Inn the night before so there you go. Last, as an added bonus, there is garbage and tons on dog s**t right out front on the grassy area. And don't forget the diesel pickup idling right outside the door for 15 minutes at 0330 in the morning

The room was clean, the staff were very friendly and helpful, nice complimentary breakfast. The only criticism I might have is the deodorizer they used in the room was really strong. We put our fan in the window to try to neutralize it but it was still strong even after a couple of hours.

A classic, the good kind
The staff is friendly, its an older classic--Aframe office, jack-alope photo opportunity, but updated, clean, in a good location for the traveler. The breakfast offered was really decent. Biscuits, gravy, waffles, cereal

Beds were comfortable. Room was very clean. Coffee was provided for the coffee maker. The only downside was no freezer in the small refrigerator, and there was not extra toilet paper.

Old rooms are just like it sounds, old and outdated. New rooms were very nice. Check in was slow and we had a reservation. The new rooms may have been worth $90 a night, but old rooms, should have been $60. Luckily for us there was a nice diner close by with a delicious buffet as continental breakfast was substandard.

The staff needed to be more quiet in the morning. They were talking loudly back and forth. You could hear them down the hall.

This may be an older property but I can say that the staff was very nice and the room was very clean. Huge TV plus very comfortable bed made my passing thru experience very accommodating.
