The room itself was fairly clean, but it had a strong mildew/mold smell, so we had to sleep with the window open. The property feels very dated for the price, and our main concern was the possible presence of mold. That said, it served its purpose for a one-night stay while attending a wedding, and the staff was very pleasant.

Outside a small country town (definitely need a car), so you can't walk to it, but there's an amusing trail on the property. They have a good charger for electric cars.

2025 tour, M&M

Very friendly staff. Had a problem with the tv set up but the young lad at the front desk came right away and guided us through the process efficiently. Room was renovated and good space. Even had a table and two chairs. There’s no phone, you have to use your cell. We left early around 7:30 am and no place to deposit room key so we left it in the room. Lighting in the room was very poor. That’s the main reason we didn’t give a 5 star rating.
