Very nice restaurant.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Overall we are so thankful to the staff at this hotel. We were there due to a family emergency and they were very flexible in working with us, especially not knowing from day to day what to expect regarding departure. The more challenging part for them, which did impact guest services, was being short staffed especially on the weekend. However, if we needed clean linen all we needed to do was bring our dirty linen to the front desk and they would give us clean in return. The free breakfast was there every morning with good choices to make. Would we stay there again? Absolutely.

Nice and quiet, clean and relaxing. In walking distance of several businesses.

8/10 Very good

The room is clean, the hotel is quiet. It is set up like a motel with outside access to your room. We liked the room, it was a generous size. The Brewery being right in the hotel was a nice touch. Breakfast is unremarkable - typical continental with eggs, sausage, biscuits, cereal, waffles... Location is good, gas station across the road as well as a coffee shop, other restaurants just down the road.

The room was good, clean, very comfy bed ... TV 😔didn't work... but the restaurant bar was excellent very beautiful frendly people taking care of customers. Was so tired of the long drive I order something to go to the room and it didn't take too long for my order to be ready. Too bad I didn't take pictures before leaving... excellent place to stay.

This was a great place to stay. AC was on and the room was cool already when we got there. The room was spacious and had fridge and microwave. I liked how it was set up. The TV was terrible. We couldn't get it to work and either could the employee. There was a hot breakfast which was good.

We had traveled with a dog. We needed to find a hotel that accepts pets and doesn’t have a weight limit. The outside is really old looking but the room was extremely roomy, lots of space and was comfortable

I really liked the staff and room. Very clean, large tv which was great. My only knock on this place is the fitness room was for whatever reason not available. This place exceeded my expectations considering the very reasonable price.
