We were in one of the old cabins. Our very small window looked at another cabin. The bathtub needed replacing with a seamless tub. The room was otherwise comfortable and well supplied.

Well past it's prime (but nice folks)
This m/hotel is something of a local legend but is in dire need of a full renovation. Still, it is a value at under $100/night. The cafeteria (no table service) is low-end institutional quality fare.
