Cons: There is no continental breakfast, as advertised. The property is in desperate need of updating. The hot tub has been drained. Pros: The service staff were very kind. If you’re looking for a cheap place to lay your head, it gets the job done.

Very nice hotel out in a pretty rural area. Nice pool. I was in a newly upgraded room which was nice. My only suggestion for improvement is the toilet is very, very low, for older people that’s difficult and no handrails or pull bars. Other wise great.
