We enjoyed everything it was like staying at home but a great getaway. I only have 2 things I really disliked 1- Having to take dirty towels across the yard and make an exchange in the office and 2-Bag up my trash and sitting it outside the door. But the room was really great cozy and comfortable and having a full kitchen was absolutely the best

Beds, bathroom were clean & comfortable. Overall setup is nice. Front desk & breakfast staff were great. However lots of dust bunnies on walls, doors, ledges everywhere where standard cleaning is not done! Doesn't make the stay feel great. Carpet has noticeable stains and needs replacement or serious deep cleaning. Hotel needs a major renovation/overall to bring it up to being great again.

The unit was dirty including water stains on the ceiling that was still leaking and multiple parts of the carpet that was both stained and wet in places. There was mold around the shower to the point we did not use use. My travel companion experienced multiple episodes of coughing and asthmatic symptoms from the AC and fan. Additionally, there was a extremely loud noise every 1-2 hours from an electrical unit outside with no sleeping to be had. Lastly the coffee in the morning had been used and not replenished. We just abruptly left as it was a terrible place to be. Honestly, in all my years if travel, this place ranks as one of the worst.
