Would not recommend.

My wife and I were disappointed in our stay. The man in the office was not very welcoming. The office was rather disheveled. There were all kinds of tools piled up behind the counter. Ot was just untidy. The room was meh. The mattress was very flat and in needs to be replaced. The pillows were lumpy and seemed beyond there usefulness also. When we laid in bed and looked up at the lamps above the bed they were very dusty and there were cobwebs on them. The bathroom was clean and met our expectations.
