"I will just prepare you right now for the arrival experience:
When we pulled up, we thought, Surely this is not it.
The exterior appearance makes it look abandoned. We even passed it to see if maybe the actual place was a little farther down the road; nope.
My companion put on a brave face and entered the check-in door while I went for gas. When I returned, she was smiling, and I felt some relief.
The woman at the front desk was very nice, and directed us to our room past the old dry swimming pool. We had to walk a bit from the parking lot to the door, so be ready for that possibility. As we approached, still feeling uneasy, we remembered the review that said “Don’t let the outward appearance fool you!” and hoped it was true.
Entering the door, we let out a simultaneous sigh of relief. The room’s interior was just fine. It was bigger than some we’d stayed in, and the towels were the plushest, softest, and whitest of all the hotels we visited on our cross-country trip (why are stained towels so common??). It was nothing fancy, but it was clean and adequate for our passing-through needs. It was a good value and I would stay here again if I were passing this way."
