Staff was fine, there is no elevator in the hotel! Older people with medical issues are expected to walk the stairs. No mention of the lack of elevator is in any of the advertised information.

A Mixed Blessing: The arrangement in the bathroom was strange--little to no counter space. There was no closet in the suite. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. The couch sunk so low that it was a challenge to get up unaided... Although along a busy highway, our suite was very quiet.. The staff were so pleasant. The food was amazing.

This place is a gem. The rooms are older but huge and comfortable. All of the staff were accommodating. Eat at the restaurant! We’ve been on the road for days and this was easily one of the best meals we had.

Would have given 5 stars, but the restaurant inside is way too expensive for the quality of food you receive. This is my 2nd or 3rd time staying here, it really is a nice place and I'll stay here again. The rooms are very clean and freshly updated. I'm not a fan of the "barn door" style bathroom doors that hotels are going to
