This little Big place, imitatedly grew on me.. Right away you meet the owner Mr Casey, and know the hospitality is about to be great.. While tired from the days traveling, this little place has the ability to make that miles from home feeling just go away, and before you know it, you've spent a couple of days, with people that feel like family and now you find it hard to leave... Thanks again Mr Casey R & L Hotel, the Biggest little place you'll ever stay!!
