Quietly met expectations.

Clean room, clean bathroom, clean carpets and bed. Quiet. AC/Heater worked great and was quiet. What more is wanted? Okay, the front door needs some weather stripping as cold air was coming through the sides and under the door. But no big deal since the heater worked so well.

I’ll be back, same time next year

Wonderful inn in the heart of Shelbyville Beautiful place with first and second story rooms. Outdoor seating areas throughout the property with ample clean parking lots. The rooms are modern and clean and included many amenities. Fridge, microwave, coffee maker, shampoo/body wash, etc The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of pillows. Communication was good, self check in. Walking distance to many attractions, businesses, restaurants and bars. Would I stay here again? Absolutely!!!

The room was very nice with cool rain shower head. The only problem was the odor. The room smelled like a cleaner to treat pet smells. It didn't bother my husband but it did me.

The only thing I didnt like is the info had conflicting check in times of 1 and 4pm. When asked 3 days prior to check in if i could check in at 3pm they said i had to ask when I received the check in text at 10am day of check in. Which I did but was told I had to have prior approval from management. Room perfectly fine and clean for a quoick one night dtay.
