Overall Score4.0/ 5
I love it when we come upon one of these kinds of places to stay. I call them my “Mom and Pop Places”. It was clean and had everything we needed. The staff was wonderful! They went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. I would highly recommend this to those who enjoy staying in a place other than a chain.
