This was a decent place to stay but there was no hot water. The staff was great, quickly accommodating our request to store our ice packs in their freezer. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. The inn is on a major highway so it was a bit noisy.

Could not find our reservations so almost did not get a room. The lady at check in worked really hard to find it and then accommodated for us to be on bottom level due to be on motorcycles. Had to take batteries out of smoke detector at 1:30am. But over all decent place for a quick overnight.
