We had a great great stay. We arrived late driving Florida to Chicago and their restaurant was still open and so good and cheap. Room is comfortable and clean, pet fees so reasonable.

The rooms are dated. It is owned by a family so staying there was slightly below the comfort of a name brand place. So I would choose it for that reason!
Right off of I24. Lots of places to eat. Close to activities and the Caverns for concerts. Beautiful place that we would love to explore further!!

We stayed for one quick night while traveling. Parking was right outside our door which was very convenient. The mini fridge was a little bigger one and fit the items from our cooler we brought along. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. My mom recently had surgery and stairs are difficult. They were able to give us a first floor room.
