The room and bathroom were clean. Bed was comfortable. Check in and out was fine and staff was helpful. The bed pillows were a bit too small for our liking but overall it was a good, affordable stay.

The staff were friendly and the rooms were clean. Problem was everything needed updated. Tub/shower, bedding, furniture etc...walls to thin. Can hear the people in the room next to us, just talking. Not much of a continental breakfast. Understand it's in a small town. Not worth the price they charge per night.
