While we have had wonderful stays here at this Property, this time was not the same. There was nobody there at check-in time. Other's were also waiting. We wen't three times to try and check in and looked all around the property for someone. We ended up staying at another hotel.

Room was clean and comfortable. Shower had plenty of hot water. On previous visits, they had a nice breakfast every morning so I could get hot water for tea and oatmeal, but now the breakfast room is only open on weekends. I like the area the venue is in.

Cute little place. Clean and the staff was super helpful. It was a little further off the Interstate than I had anticipated but not an issue. I was most surprised by how many good restaurants there were to choose from and all within a few minutes from the motel. I recommend The HonkyTonk for dinner and Bake My Day for breakfast.

Clean rooms even though a bit dated. The complimentary breakfast was perfect and everything was quiet so we slept great. My only complaint was that it was difficult to open the bathroom door once you closed it and I thought I might have to sleep in there when I couldn't get it open in the middle of the night! Overall 4 out of 5 stay and definitely cant beat the price!
