Not sure how a hotel runs out of regular coffee during breakfast?? They finally came up with some decafe, but not regular.
The shower needs another grab bar.

Probably ok for a regular room, but not for a suite room
Pros:

Breakfast was fine. Location good. Room and public areas clean.

Cons:

There were 3 of us, so I reserved a "suite" room. For $200/night in a rural location, I would consider the room bare bones, and it was really not very comfortable for our stay. The "suite" area would have been improved by having a comfortable chair as well as the couch. The main bed was quite soft. All of us thought the pillows were lumpy. Breakfast was fine. On the whole, however, I would not be willing to return.

Enjoyed the hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast was ok. Would have liked more healthy options such as additions to oatmeal, etc.

Cons:

People or housekeeping on floor above us was making a lot of noise early in the a.m. Heavy footsteps woke us up.
