Nice place to stay

Very cute and quaint Little inn we stayed in the 1985 suite and it had a Tom Cruise theme. Very fun. The staff was very attentive to our needs and the room was clean although this is an older hotel the staff has done everything they can to make sure that it is what they say. It is the high ratings because they have done so much to make your stay worthwhile highly recommend it.
