Room was alright. The property isn’t anything special, the pool was disgusting to look at. Room was clean, sheets were clean which is the biggest plus for me. The only thing I can complain about is there were no towels or anything to dry off with. Also no hair dryer. Parking was a little tight but this place did what it needed to do, I only needed a place to lay my head at night since I was out all day my entire stay and for that, it was great.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was OK, but everything else terrible. The owner was very offensive during the check-in and refused to honor the rate of our reservation. Over 3 days later after we had departed he finally refunded the over charge. The pool was pea soup green and had algae floating in it. The balcony furniture was filthy and all the exterior woodwork including the stairs was peeling paint. The entrance since had no lights on it, so it was difficult to even find the entrance at night. It is a pity, for the place has great views and a good location, and the original structure was well made. But the current management it letting it fall into disrepair and provides terrible service.

The staff was nice. However, when we got there the pool was dirty. They cleaned it but for the 2 days we stayed there it smelled super strong of chemicals. The breakfast was also not great. It was some fruits and yogurt. and some waffle mix that had been sitting in the fridge for a while.
