The hotel was clean, comfortable, and our room had a beautiful view of the sunset. The part that stood out was the friendly staff and amazing customer service. We were there Thanksgiving & asked about hours of establishments. Staff called and verified hours for us, found options for food and entertainment! Small town with big love! Thank you!

The room access door swipe cards (keys) are the old, magnetic strip-type. There are better working door key systems that use chip technology. My door swipe card worked intermittently, requiring repeated swipes to get access to my room. Irritating! Bath: It took 2 minuets of water flow to get hot water in either the sink or bathtub. Unacceptable! Thank-you for taking my report.
