We never noticed it before because it sits back off the road. We arrived after dark and wasn’t sure if we were going the right way because you have to drive around a furniture store to get to the hotel. We shouldn’t have been worried. The place was clean, well-maintained and the staff was friendly. Glad we found this place. We will definitely stay here again.
