Staff were friendly and helpful! It's an older hotel, but our room was clean, the heat worked well, hot water and good water pressure. It was also very quiet overnight. We were towing an RV travel trailer and appreciated the large parking lot across the street.

Definitely a hotel that has seen some neglect. The beds were comfortable and the TV was a nice size and in good condition. However the room was missing lightbulbs, had outlets that did not work and wasn’t the cleanest room I’ve stayed in.
