Wonderful stop for our trip. Staff was helpful and friendly. (Laurie makes an awesome omelet!) Staff went out of the way to make us feel welcome. Clean and very quiet rooms. Community pool with slides, kiddie pool and diving board next door along with a pool and hot tub at the hotel. CVS and Applebee's within walking distance. Great hot breakfast variety.
