While it may seem like a quaint old hotel, it is desperate need of some work. We were told at…read morecheck in that half the hotel are college dorm rooms and the other hotel rooms. The rooms are old, outdated, and dirty. The bathroom was absolutely disgusting. The elevator can only be run by the hotel staff. The closet appeared to be shared by adjacent room. I guess that is why it had a lock on it. No TV in the bedroom and very limited outlets.

This is a review of the locally famous ACE weekday lunch buffet. Other aspects of the hotel are…read morecovered in other reviews. If you enjoy a great buffet lunch, read on! Arriving- The Jacaranda is on Main Street so finding it is a snap. There is street parking in the front and a large parking lot behind the hotel. Availability- The ACE lunch buffet is only weekdays and only when the snowbirds are here. The remainder of the year, lunch reverts to menu-based. Check the website for availability if you're worried. Ambience- Very, very, very nice. Some folks say elegant. Two large dining rooms. See my picture. It's so nice you might worry about the $$ but don't fret! More about that later. Adult Libations- Sorry, not here. If you are dying for an adult drink, there is a great bar seconds away. Have a great lunch here and then head over as many folks do. Just Yelp it. Customer Service- I've visited many times and never had a problem. They serve most drinks by the carafe here and leave it on the table which is much appreciated by many folks. You pay on your way out at a desk in the hotel lobby. Pricing- It's currently $17.50 for soup, salad, multiple hot entrees, dessert, and drinks. And of course it's ACE. Food- The food is stick to your ribs comfort food. There are basically five stations. 1. Pick up your warm rolls and butter here. 2. Today's homemade soup which varies, and I love most of them. 3. A fresh, beautifully maintained salad bar. See my picture. 4. Hot entrees and sides which are different every day. On my last visit I zeroed in on sliced pork tenderloin which was excellent. Note that they almost always have fried chicken as one of the entrees. 5. Dessert. There is a substantial display, but I never make it there as I'm already stuffed! So a four star, sit down, ACE lunch in a beautiful atmosphere for less than twenty bucks! Sound good? You bet!

Each room has a theme - the jungle, the sea, the Far East, and "Grandma's Room." I recommend picking out your room once you arrive, as they vary in many ways. The new owners are a sweet, personable Midwestern couple. They recently installed satellite TV and Wi-Fi in all the rooms, and provide free (ice cold) bottled water for guests. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for some relaxation time in this part of the state.

The air conditioner was off. We checked the bed for bugs and when we slid it out, we found dirty clothes behind the bed. We lifted the sheet to find an absolutely disgusting, stained filled mattress. It was brown. It belonged in the trash. There was a hole in the ceiling above the shower. We paid for insurance when booking online and we were so glad we did. We got the vibe that they weren't going to refund us at first, but they ultimately did and apologized. I don't have any photos because I couldn't stand to be in there. It was disgusting. Don't waste your money, seriously.

Unfortunately, I need to disagree with her 4-star review and here is why. * There is no ubiquitous blue "Rest Area" sign and that is very unusual. * There is no parking lot! You just pull over on some grass and that is extremely atypical and very unusual again. * There are no restrooms, not even those awful portable nightmares! Who ever heard of a rest area with no restroom! Pro Tip- If you use your GPS, the location is a couple of hundred yards off. If asked Yelp to fix it but that could take a while! Sooooo, what's going on? Without the blue "Rest Area" sign I think this is a project in progress that has been delayed. No sign, no parking lot and no restrooms is crazy. So, until they complete it, I'm going at most two-stars! BTW- There is a nest of fast-food joints two minutes up the road and your bathroom needs can be met there.
