Nice staff, nice location, clean and comfy

Great location by the Zucchini Festival for the weekend! It was so nice and clean inside the lobby and the rooms were also very clean and updated! Breakfast was way better than expected. Caitllin at the front desk was so helpful and friendly when we arrived and made us feel so welcome. The only negative was that a new Dunkin was being built right beside the hotel and wasn't open yet, lol!
