Good place to stay if you want to walk to food and drink options. It’s also very close to drive to other areas some may want to visit. The staff was awesome and allowed us and early check. The bathroom did have build up in the shower. That was probably the only thing I didn’t like. It could have been a little cleaner.

Property is a bit outdated, in addition I always do a wipe down when I arrive for a hotel stay and after wiping down the bathroom the Clorox wipe was definitely brown and dirty. Also list that there are microwaves in the room when that's not true. In addition there is no elevator and was very difficult for my husband with a bad back to get to and from our room.

Hotel is an old remodeled motor hotel type. Great features like the hot tubs and fire pits plus the brewery with food and live music right on the same property. Water pressure was zero so we actually had to skip showers and the bed was so soft my husband and I both woke up so sore. So unfortunately for us we would not be able to stay here again.

This is a unique hotel, probably not the go to for grandparents with small grandkids. Older rooms and I have allergies so it was difficult for me to breathe.

Nice quaint place to stay.

It was a nice place and so unique. Had activities a bar and restaurant and also breakfast (which you pay) but good selection. Had some issues with the coffee maker did it work and shower needed extra cleaning, but once reported they came right away to resolve the issue. Parking is a bit of a challenge at times since there are multiple places you need to find a spot, but a good location since you can pretty much walk everywhere.
