The hotel was nice. The room was good size. Nice to have an extra sink outside of the bathroom, so two people could get ready. Lighting was dim, not that great for getting ready outside of the bathroom mirror. Floor could have been cleaner, but all in all the room was perfect for our two night stay.

Loved it. The property is older, but very well taken care of. The room was clean and updated. Beds were comfy. Super close to everything. When I checked in the gentleman in the lobby was so friendly. Made me feel very welcome after a bad experience the night before. The only suggestion, maybe a little hook to hang up towels so they are on the floor. I will be staying here anytime we come pick up our son from school!!

My fiancé and I stayed here to celebrate our engagement and it was wonderful! The room was decorated nicely, it had an AC unit (my fiancé loved how cool the room got), the inn had truck parking for my partner's truck, the staff was helpful when at 9pm on a Sunday night the guests above us were making noises as if they were having a rager and doing Olympics.
