Lovely stay in a box car themed room. Clean & delightful. Breakfast at Elsie’s Daughter was nice & convenient. Be sure they take the 20% off while in the restaurant. It doesn’t come off at check out like the new waitresses will tell you. Will stay there again.

For what you pay and what you get is that the room is overpriced. They over charge for everything. Water $7.50, coffee pack $6.00. Other motels, the coffee is, complimentary. The halls are musty smelling.

Very nice, fun themed hotel. Nice areas to walk around and dine. Only downsides: Parking wasn’t ideal not enough spaces and tv casting did not work after multiple attempts so we had to rent a movie.

I didnt like having to go downstairs for a cup of coffee-real coffee. The room is soo dark needs reading lights above the bed. Cory-the first person you see (bellhop in a word) is wonderful! Very kind and gave a great presentation of the surrounding restaurants as well as hotel.
