I booked in to the Roadhouse Inn principally because of its name. The name is its best feature, though the rest were adequate to my needs. It was quiet and though there was evident water damage to one of the walls, I didn't notice any water in the room despite two nights of rain. It did have a musky smell and only one of the two windows was operable.

The WiFi was spotty (and an 802.11g connection), but worked reasonably well at the pokey desk, and at the foot of the bed, if not the head. The food was fine and only overpriced by about 1/3. The door to the room requires two hands to open. The shower head was ~6 1/2 feet above the floor.

Each member of the staff I interacted with was cheery and efficient, even the one who, when taking back the only key I was given, cautioned me to hold on to the receipt for that key, for a couple of days, just in case.

I have no serious complaints and no particular interest in returning.
