Solid Stay

hard workearly hourgreat foodreasonable price
The family that runs the place worked very hard. They helped other guests when a nearby b and b had to evacuate. They opened their doors to those guests in the early hours. Their food is great I thought. The Jack Daniel wings are very reasonably priced I saw.
The room was very small. I booked knowing it was small however I didn't expect it to be that small. There were no drawers or bedside cabinets.
