I got there after a pretty heavy thunderstorm and they had lost power. The woman who checked me in using her own cell phone's flashlight, was excellent! She even helped me carry my bags to my room on the 2nd floor. The room was large & clean. My only complaint is I could hear the guests on the 3rd floor walking and I was next to a housekeeping closet and could hear them. I'd stay again.
