“As I am making way around the Eastern side of Kentucky, I stopped here in an Unincorporated city, Sandy Hook (not the place that had the shootings).What I liked: I have to state that it feels like one of those themed hotels. This time, instead of a school house, it actually does remind me of a house. The front door of my room has a knob and a top lock, like a house door would. The place could be defined as quaint (cue Ed Helm in The Hangover telling his wife that he is staying with his friends at a quaint hotel for the bachelor party...good movie). The amenities they have are interesting. They have a coffee machine in the room that can load up to 40+ ounces of liquid in the back of it and make 3 full 10z cups of coffee before it has to be refilled above the minimum line. There is a DEHUMIDIFIER. I do not think I have ever seen one in my life. I always used to have a humidifier, but never a DE...The room comes with a microwave and fridge which is always good. The television has A TON of channels, even adult ones (which one has to order on demand if you are into that stuff) and music channels (think Spectrum, highest tier cable). Inconsistences:I found that one bulb on one of the lamps, near the microwave and fridge does not work. The button seems to be broken as well. I am assuming the one by the bed turns left and one can hear it click to turn the lamp on, but this one can just be turned without any kind of resistance. There is a limited amount of free outlets in the room. The fridge and microwave take up one. The coffee maker and the nonworking lamp take another, under the table. The switches to the various parts of the room and the bathroom are in unconventional places. For instance, if I want to go to the sink area, I would think the light switch would be near the sink. It is actually on the wall before entering the sink area. This is the same thing in the bathroom. I would think it would be on the inside wall, but it is on the outside. There is no center light in the bed portion of the room, one only has the two lamps serving each bed side (somehow I ended up with two queens, then again I am not paying for the room...lol). Overall, I think this hotel, though seemingly unheard of because it is in the middle of nowhere, is pretty competitive with other hotels. They offer complimentary breakfast beating out IHG, Marriot, Wyndham, and Hilton chains. Edit: I found out the morning after I had arrived that the breakfast is only dried foods (cereals, doughnuts, honeybuns). Nothing is hot. Still, better than hotels that make you pay or do not offer anything.Not a bad experience, just unique. I think they also barbecue for guests during lunch by the amount of grills I see and they even have a food truck! Feel bad I could not be there for that since I am just staying for the night.”
