It's a funky little hotel that was built back in the 40's. The current owners have restored it and are really nice people. The hotel has some really interesting history behind it. It has a decent restaurant, and a store with the best beer selection for ~50 miles. Room rates vary from about $80/night to $120/night depending on what location you want (balcony or not) and what discounts you can get. Tell them you're with the Buell meet and they'll give you a decent discount. Check their website for more photos. The hotel got a new roof over the winter so it looks a LOT different than in previous years:
