We loved this little gem! Sparkling clean, friendly staff, good location. Across the highway are 3 restaurants: Italian, Mexican and Japanese. We had dinner at the Italian and it was very good. The calzones get 5 🌟. The hotel serves coffee in the lobby. There is a nice convenience store across the road that is open 24 hrs.
