The cleanest and most pleasant hotel of all the ones I've stayed at recently. The decor is simple and unobtrusive, with no annoying details. The room was clean and well-ventilated—no odors or dirt. Breakfast was simple, but actually pretty good.

Good stay , wish breakfast had more variety but still good. Wish cleaning staff didn't stare in the mornings to see if you are leaving to start cleaning, I don't think they did it with bad intent but felt pressured to get out faster.

You get what you pay for. The property and rooms felt dated and reminded me of my grandma’s house. The staff was friendly, and the breakfast was better than I expected. Overall, it wasn’t a bad stay, but I probably wouldn’t come back.

Great place to stay. It has an old charm to it like the furniture and structure, but also new amenities. Beds were comfortable and parking was easy. Breakfast was good with a decent variety of waffles, baggies, yogurt, eggs, and drinks. Location was perfect, right around where we wanted to go and was very beautiful. Would stay there again.
