"The place was awesome except there was no microwave in the room. With most of the restaurants being closed down because they're only open seasonal you should at least consider that and have a microwave in the room. That is the only reason I didn't give five stars"

"The hotel was good for us for just an overnight stay. Had a nice visit in the morning with a woman who was working in the dining area/kitchen. The room smelled like smoke when we walked into it. The bed was as hard as a rock."
