Room was spacious, the couple that are managing the property were very pleasant. The decor is a little dated, but that is to be expected by an individual owned hotel. Advertised a continental breakfast, and that is exactly what was there.

The room was extremely clean, the bed very comfortable, the linens provided were great and the coffee products were wonderful. The air conditioning unit worked fantastic, which we really needed. I would definitely stay here again. The owners were accommodating to my early check-in needs, thoughtful, and very helpful.

We had the family room which was large and worked good for our family although there were only 2 chairs for the table. The furnishings were a little shabby but the room was clean and the beds were comfortable. I did have to wait awhile for someone to come when we checked in but our stay was fine and the AC worked great.

The sheets what felted like sand on them. The floors felt like they haven't been swept. When we asked for turn down service the staff gave us the sheets and we had to change them ourselves. One very good thing they had great water pressure in the shower.

Kate, Doug James and Veronica were all very helpful and they were there around so that made me feel more secure. I mean for the money it was it was it was fine. I say the only thing I really had a problem was how dark it was in the room, especially because I am really having some vision problems but otherwise I would definitely recommend it to people and you guys just keep improving your property. Yep alrighty thank you so much bye-bye.

Online it looked like the place had been recently renovated and very nice. Although, it had been renovated some, our room wasn’t the cleanest. The bed sheets were okay. The comforters old, I never use those anyways. The thing that grossed me out the most is that behind the night stand there remnants of weed and safety glasses, making me wonder more about the place. I noticed this when I went to pull it out to access the outlet. There was also canned food in one of drawers that I didn’t notice until much later. We didn’t have much of a choice to stay because we had already paid for it and didn’t have other options. The owner said to my spouse at check in that he recently received ownership of the place and it had been trashed prior. I could give him a little grace for that, but he needs to do much better job if his business is going to be successful.
