Overall Score5.0/ 5
We are on a long trip and have stayed in many places with different price points and levels of service. The Dinosaur Inn has been my favorite. I'd stay here again if I come this way without hesitation. Excellent in all respects and for 40 years I basically lived on the road for business. I know a great one when I find it.
