No staff on site but reachable by phone. Very clean. Bed was ok but needed more pillows. Breakfast sandwiches and coffee at the nearby deli were very good. The only negative was the noise from adjoining room was significant. It is an older place with thin walls. Bring ear plugs if you want to sleep!

Renovated roadside property from the pre interstate days-this place had what we needed for a quick 24 hour stay: simple accommodations, clean rooms, pre-check in and a dog friendly property. Loved the kitschy rooms!
