Pros:

The location was good, and the queen suite was very spacious. We didn't use the stove top or dishwasher, but they were nice amenities. Free apples

Cons:

When I booked my reservation, I asked if I could be on the top floor. I received a message back saying they could make that happen, but when we got there our room was on the 2nd floor. I didn't say anything because they were busy, but we did have noisy kids jumping up and down and moving furniture in the evenings til about 9pm (both nights). Also, for a 2 night stay, they only gave us 1 washcloth, 1 hand towel, and 3 full size towels. Easy enough to get more from the front desk, but I shouldn't have had to.

I would drive a couple more miles to select another establishment. Not worth value
Pros:

The beds were decent

Cons:

Bathroom was filthy, room has a musty smell, counters were dusty, ice machine for fridge didn’t work, had to ask for more towels despite me booking for 4 people, customers above us were loud an even after we called front desk and went to front desk in person nothing changed and they wouldn’t move our room. At 11pm and 3 am there were knocks at our door with no one there. This room was booked after driving a day and needing to sleep for 6 hours to get back on the road first thing and was unable to do so.

Decent stay. Over priced for what I was getting
Pros:

Location was good but parking was a bother since it shares an entrance with Cracker Barrel

Cons:

Smell of cleaner was overwhelming when you walked in the door. They also said they could accommodate everything I asked for yet only fulfilled one request. I was on the bottom floor next to the laundry room and there were carts and stuff in the hallway at all times
