8 of us came from Illinois to ride Brimstone. The hotel was clean, shower pressure amazing, and staff very sweet. We had the 2nd floor breezeway between all 4 rooms so we could set up our blackstone and a small table to cook nightly. It was absolute perfect and would highly recommend.

Rooms are refreshed, beds comfortable. If you like coffee bring your own. Even if you thing driving down the road to get it BRING YOUR OWN. Well unless you like light brown water. LOL

The hotel and room were okay. Breakfast was not much and the room where guests were to eat was dark. There was a television in the dining area. How about turning it on to a news station?! In addition, the desk attendent was not very pleasant. My rating would be "fair."

The room was nice. No carpet means no germs or grit on the floor. Room was clean. The continental breakfast was terrible. That was the only downside of the hotel. So if you want breakfast, go elsewhere or if they get a new cook.

When we arrived to check in, the lobby door was locked. The owner showed up quickly, but it was still jarring to have to call for assistance—never had to do that before. Room was clean but towels and washcloths were dingy looking. Bed was very comfortable. Property looked somewhat rundown.
