I'll be back whenever I can. Other than a new smoke alarm and tile in the bathroom the place is unchanged since I last stayed here in 1968. Yes. 51 years ago. It is a treasure that younger generations need to experience. Clean. Quiet. Great shower. Nice towels. Good bed. Wifi TV and heat worked fine. The clock was even set correctly. (I've spent $200 and the clock wasn't set!) But- no hair dryer, no bathtub, no cable, bed is double not queen.
