Clean well maintained motel. Located in an Amish area with interesting local attractions. I attended a concert at Bluegate Performing Arts Center and it’s within 1/2 mile of the hotel. Free breakfast buffet was OK. This hotel is similar to a Holiday Inn.

I did not like being put in a room so far away from the front desk, pool and breakfast area. It was like a maze trying to find everything. The room was nice and I had lots of sun from the big window and a view of the back parking lot.

It felt ‘like home’ the minute we walked in to the lobby. Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. My husband became ill while we were there and the staff went the extra mile to make sure we had everything we needed!! The beds were very comfortable, and breakfast was nice. I would highly recommend this facility.

A nice, clean facility. Close to the flea market/auction. Rooms were very clean. I would liked to have a desk or table top in the room to access laptops or store things. 2 sinks were nice and the bathroom was large. I would stay there again. The hot tub was out of service but they are replacing the whole pool area.
