The air conditioning (heat mode) worked OK, but the drapes obstructed the air flow, so we left them open all night so the warm air could circulated properly.

We weren't able to stay the night; due to a family emergency we had to check out about 9:30 PM. The room was obviously old, but clean and well furnished. The owner/manager was attentive, and I was impressed by their huge solar arrays!

This property is a little run down and dated. It is fine if you just want a place to crash for the night, but not ideal for a family vacation.

This was my second stay here, I was here for 2 nights this time. I had forgotten a 5 volt converter for charging my phone and they let me borrow one. My only complaint is that there was no servicing of the room. I don’t care that the bed wasn’t made, but clean towels and more coffee packs for the second morning should have been provided. After all, the price for the second night was the same as the first.
