It was fine, a typical older hotel. I was there in hot, humid, summer weather, and the room felt very damp all the time. Nothing dried. I also noticed some ants in my room.

Clean and well maintained. The hotel is closed to highway and gas station but in the back you have beautiful views ( trees and little lakes ). It was perfect spot to walk our puppy . They have a Keurig coffee maker in the lobby with Starbucks cups . Very well stocked breakfast bar but you have to get there earlier. Overall very good experience and will definitely stay there again.

Side and back deck was nice to view nature. Quiet and decent bedding. Good coffee downstairs. Refrigerator had to be replaced as it didnt work. Towels were stained and missing or not provided multiple days. Privacy tag was not heeded.

Outdoor deck is lovely. Linens are nice. But... Two guests, one towel set? Toilet paper and kleenex almost out. Refrigerator did not work at all. While these major inconveniences were dealt with eventually and solved, it was unpleasant.

We reserved 2 rooms for our daughter’s wedding. One of the sheets had spots of fresh blood on it in room 120 and room 122 had old wrappers on the floor. Breakfast was lacking and not much food out. Towels were limited. The hotel was decent and day staff was not very friendly (except the cleaning lady she was very friendly).

Nice and clean property, very quiet. Toilet had a slight leak but front desk says they need would address it. Breakfast was ok, some lactose free milk was available. Felt sorry for whomever had to clean breakfast area as a family was there making quite a mess. Will definitely stay here again.
