“great and friendly staff. Rooms were clean a bit outdated with the furniture but still in top condition and comfortable. My kids enjoyed the pool it was cold but would be fantastic in the heat of summer”

“A very comfortable bed and excellent shower. We had a newer room well off the main highway so minimal road noise. We were able to have our small dog stay with us and the location was close to walking paths along the stopbanks to exercise him.”
