The stay was UNPLEASANT for the following reasons: 1. Unauthorized Credit Card Charge. The owner charged my credit card before my arrival, which I believe is a violation of policy. She claimed she was "waiting for us to arrive." We arrived at 8:00 PM, and she never attempted to contact us to verify our arrival. This charge was inappropriate, as we were not a no-show. 2. Misrepresentation of Breakfast- Expedia clearly showed that breakfast was included, and the owner confirmed this upon check-in. However, the "breakfast" provided was unacceptable: only six small muffins, water, and coffee. When we inquired, the owner brought one additional muffin and said that was all. This was misleading and absolutely not as advertised. Her attitude was so indifferent 3. Room Facilities and Cleanliness Issues - No charging outlets near the bedside; only one outlet was located near the TV. The bathroom lacked basic necessities such as towel bars or hooks. The baseboards were extremely dirty and covered in dust, appearing as though they had not been cleaned for a very long time. 4. Unpleasant Room Condition and Refusal to Relocate - One of the two rooms we booked had a noticeable unpleasant odor. We requested to change the room, but the owner refused, claiming the hotel was sold out. However, we observed only three cars including ours parked at night until we left in the morning, which makes us seriously doubt her claim, since this is a location that you can’t reach by foot.

Beware of possible odors

Room offered had very bad odor. Had to reject it, but we were offered the room next door which smelled ok and a/c actually worked. Low budget room. What did I expect from the name?

They advertise free Wifi, however the wifi service was horrible. Both myself and my travel partner who had fairly new phones both had very little if any wifi service. When the room door was open or we were outside we had full service, but when we closed the door and was inside the room we barely had any service. When I complained about it the owner blamed my phone. I think not!! Totally unacceptable for the price I had to pay.
