Smaller Holiday Inn Express in a tiny town with practically zero restaurant options. As a matter of fact, upon registering and asking the staff where a good place to eat dinner was, I was answered with a " Well, not much", Luckily, the hometown restaurant turned out to be really good. The hotel was super clean and breakfast was plentiful and delicious.
