It was a nice place for the night. They'd have a little rust in the tub, which was gross. And when booking the reservation, there is no option for a dog. You have to call, to let them know you are bringing a dog. They will book a random room. But when you show up with a dog, they will change your room. To the 1st floor which is annoying.

The room was great, but there was noise from the train, the clerk sent me the long way to the room, and the breakfast was sub par. As a point of reference, the Best Western I stayed at the night before in Kimball Tennessee had just as nice a room, a quieter location, better guest service, and a much better breakfast.

Charged extra for a half hour checkout extension on a record snow morning. That's bad business policy and likely won't be getting another visit because of it. There has to be exceptions for extreme situations.
