There was no one to check us in after the self-check in did not work. We call the number at the front desk for over 30 minutes with no answer. We had to leave and try to call again later. Finally one hour later we received a call and were able to get checked in. The rooms were clean and nice but the check in experience makes us not want to return

The parking was initially confusing, but then we found out about the nice parking garage next to it. It would have been nice to have more breakfast options and a refrigerator in the room, but those things aren't necessary. We used ice and a cooler to keep things cold. We thought the rooms were great.

Better than a chain hotel

Great location with alot of neat small town businesses nearby. I was in the area from out of state for work and needed to park a 26 foot box truck and street parking wasn't too inconvenient. Nice room - very hotel like. No refrigerator in the room which was a small bummer overall pretty happy with everything else
