Clean, economical

Clean, check-in was a bit slow as there was only one clerk. Bathroom was very tiny but we were only there for one night so was adequate.

The place was older and dated, with a small bathroom and a hallway reminiscent of The Shining. But it was super clean and quiet. The breakfast had plenty of good options. Staff were friendly, there was plenty of parking, and it was in a nice and safe area. So I’d definitely stay there again.

I booked at “relax inn” to begin with and they're criminal and belong in the prison that their disgusting property is across the street from. Unsafe nasty place with a criminal thief owner. When we got into peppermill instead it was such a relief and the kindness and accommodations and breakfast could not have been better. Peppermill was amazing, especially after what we went through at “relax inn”

A bargain!

It’s an older hotel so the rooms are much larger and easier to “ navigate”. Very quiet, comfortable beds, clean and even at a very affordable price had protein ( HB eggs)in their breakfast menu ! I’d return
