If you are looking for a "home" style hotel, this is it. I will go back, and even though it wasn't a "24 hour" corporate place, it felt like staying at a family or friends place. With all the pluses and minuses. If you want to be pampered,... maybe not, but this is a great place to tay.

Dog friendly at the hotel, but not in any restaurants. We weren't here long so it was mainly a place to lay our heads and it was comfortable!
