The lady at the desk was very friendly and welcoming. Maybe at one time long ago, the facility was nice. Our room 109 needed some care. The plaster on the walls in the bath was very noticeably damaged in several places. The room was clean. Housekeeping made up only one bed, which was odd. We had an open suitcase on the other one, so maybe that was the reason. We didn’t prepare for housekeeping since so many hotels don’t do it unless you ask, so I guess it was nice. Not enough towels for four. When hotels make you state how many guests, they should prepare for that number. The shower head was much too wide for the small space, so that when you tried to get into the shower, water would spray outside the tub and if you tried to turn it on when you got in, you would get cold water with no corner to stand till it warmed up. The pressure was great and if the head had been sized for the space, it would have been good. We appreciated the hospitality but the facility is just too outdated.

Convenient location. Stay was quiet and safe. The theme was fun but eventually it gets old walking through the saloon doors each time you want to get to the sink--they should be able to be propped open.
