Great value for a great stay!
Pros:

Spent the night there on a motorcycle trip. Chris at check in was more than helpful. Went the extra mile to share local info. Great place,would highly recommend…

This is a classic roadside hotel that has been remodeled and well maintained. Really nothing to improve on that I noticed.
