The hosts were so thoughtful. Stocked the coffee and snacks, bottle of wine, and essential travel toiletries (beyond the shampoo and conditioner). It was a great location to walk everywhere and space to spread out a bit.

Heartland Inn
There was a problem with the room that I got at first and then they upgraded me to a different room. I was very pleased. Great staff members. I've never been disappointed at this place except for parking because you share it with so many businesses. Breakfast is great a good variety.
