This is an older hotel away from the rest of the town hotels. Although sort of off by itself, it seemed to be in a safe area. Check in was quick and easy. The hotel was about 1/2 full. Some work trucks belonging to customers were parked in the fire lane which made me feel a little less safe that I would have felt had they parked where they were supposed to so that fire and rescue could get to the building unobstructed. The room was clean although I absolutely would not sit on the fabric love seat in the room....it had a stain that looked a lot like the upright body of a person. The bathroom smelled faintly of cleaning solution and was very clean. The towels were stiff but clean. I liked the new art on the walls. The sheets on the bed were in desperate need of replacing as there were literal holes in the fitted sheet and the top sheet was threadbare. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of hot water and AC. The hotel was also quiet until around 5am when workers left for the job site and slammed the heavy doors. Then it was quiet again. The restaurant in front was cute and the staff was friendly. We would stay again if coming through town.

The employee Renee working the front desk made you feel so welcomed and at home I didn’t even like I was staying at a hotel! She is very friendly and helpful and resourceful! She sure knows what she’s doing! She deserves the top pay and a raise! The hotel was very neat and clean and comfortable and the breakfast that the hotel includes with a voucher is by far one of the best home cooked meal I ever had! Definitely will stay here again and recommend any family and friends to this hotel!
