Would stay again next time we are that way. Very kind owners
Pros:

It was a nice and clean place to stay. Good value, room was clean, king mattress was comfortable. We slept ok but needed wifi to sleep well.
Owner was super nice and friendly. Mary is her name.

Cons:

A few things stood out to us. Place is a little outdated but nothing that needs immediate attention. Curtains let in to much light even at night. The toilet paper roll holder was broken or off the wall but the pieces were on the back of the toilet.
The WiFi stopped working at around 11pm and didn’t start working till 6am which was inconvenient for my husband and I as we listen to music while we sleep.

Was ok
Cons:

Looked abandoned. Outside doors need much work. Looks like people are living in the lobby. Had to pay extra for my dogs. She was afraid my dogs would wreck her carpet. My dogs were the least of this establishments problem. No one cleaned for all the time we were there. Always had to go and get fresh towels. Stay was ok.

Short overnight trip

Pros:

The owners were as friendly as can be. Can't say enough about how nice they were. The beds were as soft and comfortable as advertised. There was a full size refrigerator in our room with 2 queen size beds. Nice spot for a short stay if you're doing something in a nearby town that lacks accommodations. Price was good for what we got.

Cons:

It's definitely on the older end as far as hotels go. So if you're nitpicky about stuff like that, it might not be what you're looking for.

Pros:

Staff was extremely nice and friendly. I left something in the room and they found it and called very quickly making so I didn't lose much time from my mistake.

Cons:

The doors were locked when I returned fairly late at night. Luckily I found a door that wasn't but had to search for it.

Comfortable and the staff is wonderful
Pros:

The owners are as sweet as can be and it's very clean. It's dated and needs some updates but I would stay again. Much better than some 4 star hotels I've stayed in

Cons:

The doors needed to be updated but wasn't an issue
