4/10 Fair

They charge a fluctuating rate and it depends on if they have empty rooms if they have empty rooms the prices are higher
Patricia, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was very comfortable. Clean. Good breakfast.
Ted, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel is fine for a brief stay. It offers free breakfast but it’s typical fare: powdered scrambled eggs, sausages, biscuits and gravy. Also a waffle iron to make your own. The room was comfortable but we were surprised that the pillows were so small and lightweight for a king size bed. I had to use 3 pillows in order to adequately support my head. Its location is about a mile north of the main attractions in Shipshiwana so just a quick drive away. It’s a fine hotel for a visit to Amish country but it’s not spectacular
Alan, 2-night trip

Breakfast available each morning.
Suzanne, 1-night trip

It was a very pleasant experience. You can have breakfast before you get going . The hotel smells so good every where. The room was so clean and smell so good even with my dog with us . The hotel was clean, the staff is wornderdul.
Maria, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice and clean room. Property is also clean and seems to be kept up very well. Breakfast could use some variety from day to day. Bacon would be a nice change of pace from sausage every morning (or ham).
David, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A great place to say.
Virginia, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cozy.
Bonnie, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Disappointed in friendliness

The place wasn't as friendly as I thought it would be. Nobody said good morning or good evening as you walked past the front desk. If you went in the side door you were greeted with smoke from the smokers. Overall, it was OK but not worth the price. Shopping was nice and the people there were very friendly. Breakfast was the same thing every day for the 3 days were were there.A little variety wouldn't hurt. The rooms were nice and bed was comfy. Overall, I would shop around town again, but would probably stay near Goshen or South Bend and drive into town.
Dale, 3-night trip
