Good
Reasonably priced. Bed and pillows were very comfy. Breakfast was continental style. Room was quiet. I didn’t hear the highway or any other occupants slamming doors. Overall I thought it was pretty good.

Stayed at other quality Inn that offer Continental breakfast with a little better variety though. The waffles were ok but others offered a breakfast sandwich or breakfast burritos usually plus, oatmeal, toast,bagels w/ cream cheese on top of the muffins and danishes and cereal too.
