At first I didn't want to stay because the room wasn't very clean and the building is old. But the staff were so kind and friendly, and the housekeeper cleaned my room making it very sparkly, I quickly got used to the place and didn't want to leave. Denny's is within walking distance. Give it a chance, it may surprise you.

We loved our week stay at Vista Inn, clean rooms & comfortable bed, clean bathroom. Refrigerator, microwave & a couch. Location was great. Good night manager, very accommodating and friendly.

All is pretty alright at the Vista Inn

I have stayed at the Vista Inn many times and each time I found it to be very tranquil. The Inn is always quiet and plus they have a decent cable system. In the past I was not very impressed with the front desk staff but since then they have replaced the staff. I was pleased with the gentleman that helped me at the front desk. His customer service skills were top notch and he was most accommodating. I would recommend the Vista Inn to a friend.
