It is a well-loved hotel that needs a bit more attention to detail when cleaning.
Pros:

Location. And the review.

Cons:

Room 221. Attention to detail. The bathroom had black mildew or mold on the fabric wall and ceiling. The bathroom vanity for the towels had built-up dust in the back. The place smelled and looked old…well loved.

Cons:

It was not very clean, dingy. The sink was plugged. The water is so hard that soap and shampoo doesn’t wash off. Heater has terrible smell. Breakfast is bad.

Peaceful setting.
Pros:

It was nicely situated in a rural area, very quite. We love the natural setting. It was clean and comfortable, even though it is pet friendly, still has the cleanliness.

Cons:

Nothing I can think of, of not liking it. We were there only for the night.

Inviting stay for the first stop on our road trip.
Pros:

I really enjoyed the lobby. It was clean and inviting!

Cons:

There were what looked like spit wads on the ceiling above my bed. Made me a bit concerned about the rest of the cleanliness.
