Wow, what a find!

Pulled into town, tired from travelling and not finding a place to stay because of a big event. Someone from another hotel called Helene & we had our two rooms. As we walked out the door, she said "Don't let the outside fool you." That made us wonder a little as we got back in the car........
Now, if you are a baby boomer, you will recognize a classic 60's "L" shape 2 story motel w/a pool in front. Nothing unusual, and I liked the pretty blue doors. But the room....what a surprise. Meticulously clean, all the amenities I could hope for (more than I got from Holiday Inn last week), and Helene could not have been more charming (AND a true Yankees fan!!!!) The decor feels more guest room than hotel room - like staying at a favorite friend's place. Very welcoming, very comfy. Coffee in the room, REAL glass glasses to drink from (how unusual is that) and a free continential breakfast. Although it is on a major street, we did not experience any serious noise issues.
Not sure when I'll get back to Winnemucca, but at least I know where I will be staying when I do!!!!!!!!!
