Older, local hotel, but well-kept. Don't expect it to be like a mainstream competitor, but do expect good customer service, and clean, simple rooms. Breakfast, restaurant style, is unique and enjoyable.

Property was ok. Its more like a motel than a hotel. Room and Bathroom was dated and not very clean. Everything was scrammed in a small room. Not the best of the stay but also not the worst. Staff is humble. Breakfast option is limited and basic.
