"The staff are very friendly and helpful. This hotel is family friendly and there were several guests with young children. The room was mostly clean though dated. However, the appeal of the hotel is that it has the rustic cottage look and it has the in-room fireplace. The included breakfast was good, I’d rate it better than average for a free hotel breakfast."
