Place was spacious, run down, nice view across the street. Adequate for a one night stay. Office was closed when we arrived at 8 pm but the manager chased me down in the parking lot to collect pet fees. Overal just okay.

The room was clean and the staff was very helpful. The only thing I would suggest would be maybe a few coffee filters as that would not be something you would feel you would need to bring. We brought our own coffee and cream of course.

The room was clean & Michelle in the office was very pleasant. The QBR is close to where my family lives so it's a perfect place to stay for family get-togethers.

We absolutely love this place. Does it need a little TLC? Yes, but we love the staff and the vibe, the rabbits and the owner. We come back yearly and it’s always quiet! A hidden diamond in the rough or rough in the diamond ❤️
