Friendly staff
The staff were extra friendly. This was our second time staying there. When we checked in the owner was not in the office. She came to our room the next day to welcome us back. Today as we were getting ready to leave she csme to our room to wish us a safe trip
The room was large and had a great view of Kelly's Mountain. Evrn though you are beside a main busy highway, you didn't hear any traffic noise.

The owner was very helpful. The hotel is a little dated. The bed not as comfortable. Lots of mosquitoes around the area.
