"We were in town for the HORROR FEST FILM FESTIVAL. Check-in was super easy and the staff was delightful. Our room was very clean, well prepped, and slept well. The only dislike was the loud neighbor, but I will not hold that against the place. The breakfast was great and filling, lots of options. Definitely recommend for anyone traveling though. Great shampoo provided. Good prices, and an actual modern tv that was nice to relax watching during the stay."
