Clean, average comfortable beds. Small shower but plenty of hot water. Our TV wouldn't turn on, but could be a remote battery issue. Didn't really matter, we arrived late and just needed a place to sleep. There's a good bar/restaurant in a big barn just down the road at a camping area. Very friendly people, good pizza and drinks!

I would stay again in the future. The area around where it is on the edge of town is beautiful with the rolling hills of the bluff country. Close to the river.

Read reviews and they were all good. It was an ok stay. Had to call a number to get access code to get room key. Nobody around on property. Air conditioner would not work properly. So the room was humid. So that’s why I rated the way I did

The accommodation was clean and comfortable. Sometimes maintenance issues happen that are completely out of anyone's control. The staff went the extra mile to provide and prepare an alternate sleeping arrangement for us. Thank you!

Unacceptable checkin and help from Hitels.com
No check in available at office at 6:00. We called the posted number for assistance, no answer. We called Hotels.com for assistance, and was told that there was definitely someone in the office that they now had on the phone on a different line. Even though I knew otherwise as I had already been to the office, I walked over again to find and empty office. I told the rep that she must be lying to you, but the rep chose to believe the hotel owner/manager which floored me. It’s also during this call that I suddenly received a message with the key code. Very poor on the part of the establishment and very poor customer service on the part of the Hotels.com representative.

Inside the room & restroom were exceptionally clean & bed was comfortable. We received a key code to a box by door that held the key so getting in was very convenient. They did have chairs outside to sit on but there were buckets full of cigarette butts there which made it look kind of grungy. We did appreciate the lack of smoke in the rooms so I’m guessing that helps with that. The other thing that was not nice was that the remote did not work for tv. It said it was not connected to the system & without a front desk to call we were simply out of luck.

Only if you have to
Well we arrived between 6.30pm and 6.45pm and the office was closed. We’d had no comma about getting in and there was no cellphone signal to call them. Luckily the WiFi password was visible through the office window so was able to message through hotels.com. Around 8pm we got a reply and we’re finally able to get into the room. Shortly afterwards it sounded like there was a pow wow going on in the room above for about 30 minutes. Apart from all that it was an okay stay
