In the middle of nowhere

Very limited breakfast menu but worse is the location. There are not many restaurants nearby and unless you are going to the hospitals close by, there are not convenience stores or restaurants close by. Worse - the hotel takes advantage of the situation by charging astronomical amount for common items. Example : a regular (no king side) Hershey chocolate bar almost $5. This is ridiculous.

Staff in reception were polite and check/in was speedy. I made a special request for a room and got it. Bartender on the 2nd floor bar was nice. Room was spacious. Only let down was no housekeeping for a two night stay. I had to hunt down toilet paper, coffee, and fresh towels.

The room floors could have been swept or vacuumed. The toilet paper holder was broken off of the wall. No iron or iron board in the room you have to ask the front desk for them.
