I enjoyed my stay. It was a very quaint hotel and comfortable. Nice hot breakfast with scrambled eggs, sausage, waffles, juice, cereal. It is located near large Amish restaurants with excellent food and also several large attractions, antique and craft shops and bakeries.

Super nice little spot. We stayed overnight after a concert. Simple, inexpensive, comfortable beds, very clean. The decor is a bit outdated but we don’t care as long as it’s comfy and clean. Staff was nice and breakfast was good. We would definitely stay again when in the area.
