Just ok

The place was ok. However, there was a slight smell of Chinese food in the room. Breakfast was minimal. Quiet. Rather annoying was a $3 charge for parking. This was for an outside parking lot like any small town hotel would have.

We want to support this property as it and those in the area recover from Hurricane Helene. It was in the process of restoring flooding areas, and was quiet and clean. Thanks to the delightful receptionist who welcomed us last night.
