The staff here is amazing along with the rooms and the property. This is a very nice and quiet place to stay with the family and they always seem to have some type of entertainment for the guests. Close to town and other points of interest. Only thing missing is a pool, but other than that this is a very nice place to stay.

Located across the street from the overflow parking lot for the Steam Train. Follow the tracks. This is best as a morning shot... 8-9:30 a.m. Great textures and details on this piece. I spent an hour shooting it. The "AMERICAN" logo is classic. #TroverDetour #Abandoned
