4/10 Poor

It was great that it was pet friendly and reasonably priced. We have stayed here a few times. Our only complaints are the unit was very smelly (musty & stale cigarette smoke). We also had told them on our previous visit that the jug leaked all over the bench but yes it was still leaking this visit.
