As old as this place is, it is in awesome shape! If you like the tiny roadside cabins of yesteryear, this is your spot. It is perfect for a little overnight on the way. Our host was welcoming, accommodating, and we enjoyed the little breakfast provided. Look forward to drifting through again soon!

On our way home from a lengthier trip, the Hotel was nice for what we needed. The place was cute and took on a vintage style. The rooms are small but they were adequate. Breakfast was already in our room which was nice.
