The staff was kind and friendly. Plus pet friendly too. The room was clean and the bathroom looked newer/ redun within the last 5 years and was nice. I was there off season (May) so I was the only one staying there as a guest I believe so some things were off/ down like the ice machine which was kind of annoying but all in all for the price it was a good stay.

The location and the view from my room was amazing. This place feels like the shining. The bed was decently comfortable, and the sheets looked clean. Other than that. Probably the worst room I’ve stayed in in a long time air conditioner doesn’t work half a roll of toilet paper with no spare no refrigerator although she did bring me one up to put my creamer in. I bought ice and iced it myself because none of the icemaker work

While this place has so much potential but it seems the owner didn't care about this place at all. Avoid this place at all cost! You will be dealing with constant issues from the moment you check in. No microwave, no fridge and no water! Trying to contact a person to resolve your problem, its a nightmare!

Bait and switch. Terrible amenities and all guests woke to no running water on the property. No one at the front desk to hep solve our issues on check out. General theme was the owner is not willing to invest in the property. I will be working hotel and hotel.com to get a discount. I would recommend you drive by this place and stay elsewhere.
