Very clean room, with mostly modernized parts. The hotel building itself is quite old. The owner tries to get/keep everything in good condition. The breakfasts is pretty nice. We enjoyed the stay there. The only really annoying part is the WiFi. We lost multiple times per hour the connection and the speed was quite slow.

Place looks a bit dilapidated from the outside but the rooms have been renovated and were clean and comfortable. Nothing fancy but I’d stay again. Hot breakfast was included - choice of three items on the restaurant menu. Nice not to have to hunt down a breakfast place.

Overall, it was a good stay. Room was clean, renovated recently. Theres a restaurant onsite, breakfast and dinner were both great. They did not have a hot tub like advertised but thats not a big deal. It's just an old hotel on the highway but you can't hear the traffic. I'd stay here again for sure

The staff were very friendly, but the cleanliness and the poor maintenance of the rooms distracted from the overall stay. A little elbow grease, and some work, this place could be great.
