“Once offering inconsistent service, this property now seems intent on recapturing its former standards. While rooms are functional, some amenities may be lacking, however, the friendly staff and pleasant restaurant contribute to a positive stay. Serene grounds with mature trees and a playground add considerable appeal.”
