So quaint... takes you back in time for just a moment. Clean, comfortable & warm. Only downside was that the tv remote did not work, even after changing out the batteries. Loved the grab & go breakfast- giving you all you need to start the day! Definitely would stay again.

The quickest Check in I had on this trip was done by a very pleasant and efficient woman at the front desk! Place was quiet furnace was warm but fan came off and on frequently, but not much of a disturbance. Rooms were small but adequate. Queen beds were very comfortable. I didn’t wait for breakfast so can’t comment on it.
