Elk Inn great value.

Staff at Elk Inn gracious and friendly, extra pillows provided for spouse as requested. We were moved to another room as TV in original room was not working, room change was fine. Very quiet area. Local restaurant recommendation by staff for dinner was great. Accommodation price very reasonable, easy access to major highways and interstates, gas, restaurants, etc

Will stay again

This was a nice, serviceable hotel. My son and i spent two nights, the rooms were clean, quiet and the smoke-free room we requested was truly smoke-free. The owners were very accommodating about a late check-in, a first floor room and providingthe little extras we needed. The refrigerator had a seperate freezer; which we needed. There was a microwave and the best water pressure I've ever had at a hotel! This is not part of a huge, luxurious chain with pools; workout rooms, free breakfasts etc. Thus is a pleasant, clean, quiet and inexpensive place to spend the night. We will stay there again when in the area.

Good stay for night

The Elk Inn on the outside needed updating. It looked like it was recently purchased and they were working on repairs. The room was freshly painted and clean. Our room had a refrigerator, microwave and flat screen. The bed mattress was firm. Not to my liking, but adequate. The air conitioner worked well keeping the room cool. It was very quiet to relax and sleep.
