We spontaneously decided to stop here after being soaked from a hike and haunted venture in the rain and being far away from home. It was the best decision we could have made. The room was clean, with a spacious bathroom. The front desk was courteous and when I needed to find the laundry room at midnight someone kindly walked me where I needed to go. The breakfast was great, there was a pancake maker, sausage, eggs and plenty other options. The whole hotel was decorated festively and it had a very cozy feeling. We enjoyed our night here very much.

Very friendly staff. Nice sitting area and breakfast dining area. Extremely festive Halloween decorations! At first it seemed a little extreme, but then as we kept seeing more and more, we began to understand the theme very fun and funny!
