The property is older redone property. The service is very basic. Once we realized this we could function. To have dogs they make you sign a lot of papers . It seems they have had bad owners with their dogs before. Make sure you have your own poopy bags as they supply 0 complimentary. Be prepared to buy your meals hot we had a fridge but no microwave in the room to heat stuff up. If you want to heat stuff up there is a microwave in the front office. There was supposed to be hot tea and coffee in the front office/dining area but when i went in the morning there wasn't any. It was a nice stay but people need to know what's not available to prepare.

We typically stay at Hampton Inns; the room was comparable; very clean, comfortable beds, quiet and convenient location. Staff also very friendly and accommodating. The only small issue I had was I couldn’t park my big truck infront of my room because a truck with a flat bed was parked across behind the parking spaces— I didn’t address it because no big deal to park a bit further down by the front desk. Might be something to consider to have flatbeds park down the side of the building for other to have access to their spaces. Great stay!

We had a late check-in (After 10 PM) and the hotel called to let us know to give them a call when we were 10-15 minutes away so they could have someone on the desk as they don't staff the front office all night. It worked out nicely. The staff were pleasant. There were no toiletries in the room on check in. They provided us some the next day. It wasn't a problem as I always travel with a bar of soap for hand washing.

The Aurora Inn is an older property but well maintained, updated and clean. It has beautiful expansive lawns with large trees and a few picnic tables. The staff was very friendly. If you stay for more than one night, your room does not see the housekeeping staff (except to empty your garbage) until you leave. Not a big deal but if you need more towels, coffee, tea etc., you need to go to the office and ask. We thought the in-room coffee was awful, so maybe another brand should be used? There's a nice patio area outside but there are no chairs or tables. It would be nice to include a continental breakfast - there's lots of room inside.
