Cool little hotel. Was pleasantly surprised and glad I chose to stay here. Very nicely maintained and staff (ie, one guy at the front desk that might never sleep) was super nice. Certainly not flashy, but it checked every "Exceeds Expectations" box. Awesome cars out front and right next to the car museum too.

We were checking in after 11PM, but they called us with instructions how to get into our room. The room and the location of the hotel were excellent. Will definitely stay again if in the vicinity.

Much better than expected for a small town in the middle of nowhere. I liked the inside hallway for added safety. The cinder block walls provided good sound proofing. My bed was softer than I prefer but overall comfortable. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly
