Another option for nice places is Glenora. Nice place, great restaurant, and they have some good package deals if you are bringing SWMBO.

+1 It's also a spa. Great place to take the spousal unit.

Budget Inn was perfect.
$100. No fuss. Very close to the track, etc.
Free conti. breakfast & waffles.
I'd stay there again.

I saw these other 2 places on the main strip, as well.

I always figured the best thing about the budget inn is its proximity to Glen Dairy next door.

It's that little old-timey place just down the road into town next to Burger King, Matt....I walk there to rationalize getting a large sundae instead of a small

It's a Hershey ice cream store isn't it? I love it but being somewhat lactose intolerant makes it challenging at times. Fortunately I have a custom bead seat so nothing could possibly escape.

That's it, Dave, they might have something for you as they've got tons of stuff in there (don't ask )
