The folks at the front desk were very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were good and spacious. Fridges came with drinks for sale. The location was close to everything. Very convenient! Also has its own hot pool! Only thing is that the train tracks is nearby so we heard a train go by every so often.

I went over the Memorial Day weekend so no one was working at the hotel while I was staying there. I checked in and didn't see anyone until I checked out. The hotel is very clean and updated. I did like the hot springs pool that's owned by the hotel. Even though it's a block away from the hotel, but worth the walk. I will stay there again.

Nice Hostess, easy check in. The room was nice. Old, but clean. One suggestion would be to hang some clothing hooks on the wall since there are no closets.

First time i chose a hotel over an air b n b in a long time, and was pleasantly surprised. The room itself upon first sight was small and very humid, but fun and quaint. Lots of channels on the tv. More pros include being in the middle of the town so you can walk anywhere by walking out the front door. So convenient

Staff was fantastic! The place smelled like waffles every time I walked in. Really added something!! Bed was comfortable. Small room came with fridge and microwave which was nice for us soda and popcorn lovers. Easy walk to everywhere in town! The buildings/rooms outside lack of cleanliness and the spiderwebs everywhere on the windows did make it feel like we were camping.
