Adequate Stay Near the Hospital

convenient location warm welcome clean room firm mattress noisy floorboards downstairs room

The lodge is very close to the local hospital which was very convenient. The check-in process was warm and cute. I found the room to be quite clean and restful (which is always a plus).

The mattress felt very firm. It seemed like a plank of wood. I was in a downstairs room and could hear every movement from the guests upstairs. The floorboards creaked and the banging was noticeable at times.
