We booked a last minute overnight here during a road trip. The hotel was very nice and clean - the only complaint was a hair on the shower floor along with a crack in the shower tub. Breakfast was excellent, and offered several options including healthier choices that most hotel breakfast's don't (egg white omelet and turkey sausage). We would definitely stay here again!
