They actually had protein and fiber, and other items that were not completely processed sugar. They did, however, still have plenty of sugary processed breakfast items as well. Even if was boiled eggs, inexpensive fruit, and plain oatmeal, it's nice to have a healthier option to start the day. The clubhouse was cute and cozy, and had a pool table and a newer PlayStation--I think, as anything beyond PS2 is new to me. There were also a few other games as well. The property felt spaceous with a few outdoor activities, and space to stretch out of you need a little space to cut the grass. The property was also conveniently located with a Walmart across the street and the main strip a short walk down the road. Dispensary and a late night Denny's across the street as well. The room has all the basic amenities, and decent ones at that. The towels were quality, and the short head was great for a warm soak after a cold day, though make sure you have the temperature adjusted before entering. Maybe I am at that age but I loved the retro feel of the place. I am big fan of old-fashioned motels and inn where you can pull the car right up to your room to unload. The nostalgia added not only to the ambiance, but also to the overall vibe of the property. A great spot for small group, couple or solo adventurers like myself. Oh, and a load of laundry was only $2.50, and my two full loads which included a blanket and jeans came out completely dry! Staff was great!

Everything was clean, and most everything was well maintained less the elevator. It might be one of the more loud operating ones I've used. It worked without issue but was much louder than other in different hotels I've stayed in recently. Parking was a non issue but, snow/ice removal from the walking surfaces between the parking lot and the front entrance could stand a little improvement. There was definitely a need to pick where to walk to avoid a slip and fall situation. Breakfast was well presented and had a good variety. The room was clean and in a good state of repair."
