Great place to stay! Clean rooms, quiet, great breakfast, many choices. Staff is wonderful and very helpful. I stay here many times during a year for business. There is a restaurant and gas station really close. There is a nice place in the back to sit outside with tables. I have never used the pool, but it looks very nice. I highly recommend going to Rachels Roadside Bar and Grill just on the other side of Hwy 29. Wonderful food!!

“I hoped for peace and quiet!”

I am not lucky with hotels. I seek quiet for a good night's sleep and that is apparently difficult to find with any hotel. There is always noise and sleep disturbances it seems even though I always request a quiet room location. This hotel appealed to me when I first stayed there 3 years ago to bike nearby trails because it is set back off the main road, but vehicles and semis travel on a BP gas station entrance road in front of the hotel so I requested a room on the backside that faces forest and I did the same this time. So this is what happened my recent 2nd stay. My husband wanted 3rd floor and the room we were assigned seemed like a quiet one but the TV didn't work and my husband really wanted to watch Wimbledon. He messed with it for awhile trying to get it to load and then called front desk. Paul, who manages the hotel, came up immediately. He couldn't get it to work either. Because the room seemed like a quiet one I didn't want to move but my suggestion to change out the TV apparently wasn't an option. The hotel had many open rooms but we were given the choice to move to a suite at no extra charge which we thought was a nice gesture, but we wanted 2 queens, not a king. And the suite was closer to the ice machine which is an insanely noisy monster and never seems to shut off. So we asked to move to a room next door to our first room instead after Paul made sure the TV was working in that room. After moving our stuff, and there was no talking and our transition quieted down, we realized there was a loud annoying hum. At first I thought it was the ice machine you can hear all the way down the hall but with our room door closed I realized it was coming from elsewhere. Again I called front desk and Paul came up immediately. I thought it was a fan next door left on but it was a fan in the attic that could be heard loud and clear from the new room, but not in the old room. Again Paul offered to move us to 2nd floor but by then exhaustion had set in. This whole process took a good couple hours and we were already exhausted from checking out of a motel that morning, biking 15 miles on a trail, driving an hour in pouring rain to this motel and then a 2 hours process to get a room due to the non-working TV and other complications! So I decided to just put up with the noise from the fan in the attic. Although Paul was accommodating, the extra time and effort to move to another room was caused by a non-working TV, which then caused us to get a room with an annoying noise, exactly what I didn't want. I feel everything should be working in a room! We should not have to be inconvenienced by that and management should be monitoring rooms and know what does and does not work! It shouldn't become the guest's problem! We are paying plenty for a room and feel we should not be inconvenienced and our time taken up with non-working items in a room. In the 2nd room, the bathroom fan did not work! And then something happened that I never expected! Fireworks were shot off right next to the hotel by hotel management and were extremely loud in our hotel room!! In Wisconsin, any firework that leaves the ground is illegal unless a permit is obtained, insurance obtain, bond paid and a professional attends the display! And that is because they are so dangerous in so many ways and terrify people, pets and wildlife! I don't know if all those conditions were met or not but I don't feel it is appropriate to set off fireworks at a hotel where people may be sleeping and may be terrified of the noise as many are. We decided to vacation that week and stay at a hotel to get away from the illegal fireworks in our town and then that happens! We had no choice but to stay in our room and endure the noise! So what is good about this hotel? Excellent continental breakfast and their employee Kristie is a wonderful kind, compassionate and understanding person who is a real asset to this hotel. The rooms are spacious but not the most comfortable beds and pillows...not like what we have experienced in other hotels but they weren't terribly uncomfortable either, just not plush. Rooms were clean. No microwave however! And no sitting chair! I don't mind dated furniture as long as it is comfortable and in working condition. The hotel has some class. The small frigs are housed in an enclosed cabinet...another issue! Refrigerators run hot in an enclosed area and frost up. The elevator is loud and the ice makers on each floor are insanely loud and need updating. Paul did say they were getting updated TVs soon but they weren't in time for our recent stay. Conclusion? Paul tried hard to fix the problems with our rooms and get us into a quiet one, but it took up a lot of our time and it shouldn't have. My guess is the 3rd floor is the least booked and maintained, probably only booked when the first two floors are filled, but we requested the 3rd floor not knowing it wasn't top working order. Everything should be working in a room and the management should know which rooms have issues and which rooms are quiet, given the hotel isn't full and there are choices in rooms. We were charged more for the 3rd night, which was a Thursday night which management said was why we were charged more for that night, yet the hotel wasn't nearly fully booked. So I don't really get the upcharge for a Thursday, plus we stayed 3 nights in a row. It appears management tries really hard but I think the hotel's age requires some upgraded equipment. Elevator was pretty jerky and loud too. Keep in mind I am just unlucky...I never seem to get a quiet motel room but maybe you will. There is a very cute outdoor patio behind the hotel. Now that I did appreciate. Give it a try, the staff and management are nice and service is great. They do try to please their guests!
