A flat-screen cable TV, microwave and compact refrigerator are provided in each air-conditioned room at Stanlunds Inn and Suites. Featuring a shower, private bathrooms also come with a hairdryer and free toiletries. the room was amazing! Great bed, comfortable pillows, really loved the fridge, microwave, and coffee maker as I had been traveling for a bit and enjoyed heating my own foods. As someone who can't sleep with any light, I truly appreciated that it is a 'dark sky' community. It's pitch black outside so make sure you bring a red flashlight.
