Great hotel, very pleased with our stay. The only suggestion would be to have one of the 2 areas to sit outside to be nonsmoking.

We checked in but had to wait for the room to be ready. We got to the room and it was pretty nice. The bed was very uncomfortable and soft. The breakfast was awful!! You might as well said continental breakfast. It was definitely a big disappointment.

Room was very clean and nicely set up. Breakfast was good and was located close to town. Only minor issue was that could not leave fan on constant run so turned off when a/c turned off. Had a button on unit to leave fan on continuous but would not turn on . Was no problem as a/c had a soft on and off system so was fine for sleeping.

Hotel is fine for a brief stay. It offers free breakfast but it’s typical fare: powdered scrambled eggs, sausages, biscuits and gravy. Also a waffle iron to make your own. The room was comfortable but we were surprised that the pillows were so small and lightweight for a king size bed. I had to use 3 pillows in order to adequately support my head. Its location is about a mile north of the main attractions in Shipshiwana so just a quick drive away. It’s a fine hotel for a visit to Amish country but it’s not spectacular
