The young fellow had a real hard time trying to check us in. He ran our credit card twice. Had us concerned. We had made advance reservation. We arrived on the correct date. He took down our confirmation number. Now I get a message from them that we did not check in.
First there wasn't an ice machine & was given small amt.in pitcher. Room was so small & had a partial kitchenette which only had a hot plate for cooking. Clothes hanger was far up the wall next to bed as there wasn't enough room anywhere else. Bed comfort was so-so. Room had a strange smell. Everything was clean. Not much choice in the area. Was only for a night. Upon ck in at 4pm the staff person said "early, couldn't travel any further " . Wish we could have!
We've stayed here before, and this completes a second time, and we will be here once again before the 2016 summer ends. The proprietor family are very polite and caring, including son; they are capable inn owners, and nothing appears to be needing work. Their employee I briefly encountered was very positive and friendly. It's a great location up on a bluff with the town just below to the west. There's good parking and decent enough turn-around room for most trailers, and I found nothing missing or out of order in the room, which was a kitchenette upgrade.
