This is one of the cleanest hotels we’ve ever stayed at! The room was plenty spacious, very well priced, breakfast was great with several options available, and it was centrally located to the town. The staff put it over the top for us — extremely kind and helpful, with an obvious amount of pride in what they were doing there — whether it was checking us in, cleaning, or offering breakfast! That impressed us the most! We rarely take the time to write reviews, but they are deserving — so here we are! 10 out of 10!!!
