Historic Union Hotel and Apartments

Great area if you like small cities. We do. The people we met were very nice. We went to a small Baptist church for Sunday service and were welcomed in. It was a great service. The owner of the hotel is very nice. His dog Rosie was great. She would greet us each day. Rooms: The room was not very clean. It really needed a good vacuum and dusting. Bathroom was clean and the bed sheets were clean. No room service. Coffee was served in a room downstairs. The restaurant is closed.

We like to stay at historic hotels especially small ones off the beaten path. The Union hotel has been on our list for a while. This place comes across to me as a once grand hotel that was renovated years ago and then allowed to decline. There appears to be another round of renovations going on now, but judging by the age of some of the debris piles around the property, it is going very slowly or possibly not progressing at all. Our room was renovated but the work was thoughtless and shoddy by my standards. Anyone who has any stability issues walking or balancing should avoid this place. No elevators. Tripping hazards, walkways obstructed, poorly installed fixtures that would easily come loose if you grabbed one for balance, and much of the first floor, as far as I could see is a cluttered hoard of knick knacks. The beautiful game room touted on the website has been closed off as the owner 's personal living room and office with Fox news playing on a gigantic TV all day. The parking in back is not really available to guests in favor of the owners cars and trailers plus most of it is used for an overgrown RV park and piles of junk and appliances from the hotel. So you'll need to park on the main road through town in front of the hotel. Which doesn't always feel safe due to rampant speeding and careless driving in town, but worked out ok for us. On the upside, it's a very cool historic building, the owner is friendly and dogs are welcome. Directly across the street is a Sinclair dino mart which is the hub of activity in town. The main entertainment seems to be for locals to burn rubber out of there in their huge trucks. If you want any sleep, bring ear plugs.
