Enjoyed this stay, almost like being in an oversized B&B, the facility feels very homey. Staff helpful. Appreciated how they would personalize daily service to the room-provided cards for notes and requests which could be hung on door. Breakfast was fine, the coffee machine was a great treat! Another option that does not happen much these days in a smaller hotel like this was the attached restaurant-Rudy’s. Parking lot was full because of it when we arrived and it was packed, always a good sign. No need to go out to have a relaxing and very good meal. We found most of the property and our room needing more light; stronger bulbs, more lamps would be helpful. It’s been 12 years or someone we’ve stayed here. We’d return!

Rudy’s red eye grill has great bar/food. Cleaning staff did a great job accommodating our requests. They take pets but do not have a designated poddy area which was strange. When we checked in on Friday front lady scolded us for not calling them directly about bringing our 5 lb Yorkie.
