Very respectful and respectable staff. Nice simple yet sufficient accomodations. Don't get me wrong this is may not be a place for the pickiest of people, but neither is the Taj mahal sufficient for some of those as well. Getting still in like 90% of establishments in the limestone county area it is a working progress.
