Hotel was clean but was in need of updates. Our room was non smoking but had a slight odor, as if it had been smoked in. The front desk person was friendly.

Low price AND great breakfast? Per reviews, so I thought. Price was low, but the breakfast didn't make up for the jump from I-49. The only things hot were coffee a nd DIY waffles. Eggs aren't $6 per dozen anymore.

The owners were so kind and accommodating. We stayed after a local sheep show. They had a safe place to park our trailer and offered water for our livestock. Would recommend this place for anyone needing a simple place to stay.

I checked in a little late, and the person who served me at the desk was very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean. The breakfast was meh, but I'm fussy about my food. If you don't like waffles, McDonald's is next door. It was a good place to stay for the price.

Clean room and comfortable bed. The desk clerk was friendly and courteous. The shower head was geared toward people much shorter that me (I'm 5'7"), but the spray was strong and the water was warm.
