Clean and comfy, great choice!

My husband and I travel throughout the USA a bunch. The cleanliness of this place resembles the perfect housekeeping of my German neighbor back in the day. Friendly staff too. Pool was a warm welcome during our rainy visit. Loved our stay here.

Decent hotel within walking distance of Helen's sh

Decent enough hotel for short stay and within walking distance of Helen shops to avoid paying for parking.. We had to turn off mini fridge. It was making a high pitched squeal. Had to depart earlier than expected so we did not report it so they had no opportunity to resolve that issue.
