My husband and I were looking for a last minute stay and happened upon this gem. This is a cute retro hotel that has been recently updated inside and out. It was clean, had comfortable beds, nice grounds and friendly staff. The prices were good too. The rooms had a microwave, refrigerator and real glassware. And in true 1950’s style you can park right in front of your room. We will definitely stay here again.

Just overnight, cute place. We prefer to have a chair in the room. Too bad they didn’t do that. Also, need to add a bath mat, had to use a towel when stepping out of the shower.

The room was cold. Heater ran all night and it was cold. Definitely not a winter destination. When I spoke with fronts desk about it, the reply was “ these new heaters are garbage “ . Not good.

The wall is thin. We can hear the adjacent room talking & playing until 2:00 am or later. It's tough when you're trying to get up & hit the road before 6:00am.
