    It was always owned by Clover meats, and was used by workers that lived to far way to travel to work every day.

    The basement is suppoed to be haunted

    tis a nice place for food. been there a couple of times for dinner. We got a tour around it when it first opened. Mam and her friends used to sneak in there when they were kids to play.

    It's lovely when you get there, just close your eyes on the drive out.*

    The meat rendering plant is further down the road from the hotel and it's not a nice place at all.
