The hotel was clean, comfortable, and our room had a beautiful view of the sunset. The part that stood out was the friendly staff and amazing customer service. We were there Thanksgiving & asked about hours of establishments. Staff called and verified hours for us, found options for food and entertainment! Small town with big love! Thank you!
