The location was great and the property itself had a lot of potential. However, the rooms were not very clean, and parts of the property appeared rusty and in need of maintenance. The staff were polite, but not particularly helpful or proactive during our stay. Overall, the setting was nice, but the condition of the rooms and level of service could be improved.
