Older property in need of some tlc, but what stood out was the attention the staff gives to both the property and their guests. Every time I left my room there was someone cleaning in the public spaces on the property, room a bit dated but comfortable enough for a night.

There is no pool so that should be advertised. Also thought it odd they wanted to charge extra per person for the room. The room slept 4 and there were 3 of us. I’ve never had a hotel do that. Maybe just me.
