This was the worst hotel experience I have ever had. Almost everything about this place was misleading or a complete lie. The photos and descriptions online do not match reality at all. The room was in terrible condition—dirty, uncomfortable, and poorly maintained. Basic facilities were either broken, missing, or nothing like what had been promised. The staff were unhelpful, and instead of solving problems, they just gave excuses. It honestly felt like every detail had been exaggerated or fabricated just to lure guests in. I have stayed in many places before, but this was by far the most ridiculous and disappointing. I left feeling frustrated, cheated, and completely dissatisfied. I would never return and strongly recommend others to stay away from this hotel.

I was not impressed with the room we were allocated, I unfortunately was given a room that hadn’t yet been renovated. The staff were exceptional and were prompt to assist. Due to feeling so unsafe we did not stay the second night and found alternative accommodation and received a partial refund for the second night.

The office staff were courteous and called to confirm our arrival time. The place was very quiet, probably one of the most quietest places we have stayed with no noise from the main road or patrons. Couldn’t sleep in though due to cleaning cart rattling along out the front back and forth by 8:30am and door bell every time someone walked into the restaurant. Rooms were spacious yet bathrooms were tired and in need of maintenance. Rust visible from rooms and bathrooms on the walls. Beds were comfortable and had a great night sleep.

Lovely restaurant attached with lovely homely food, beautiful atmosphere, and lovely staff. We were down for a funeral so it was super convenient not to worry about food options while we were there and know my toddler was getting healthy meals. It made a stay under not so great circumstances, nice, comfortable, and easy. I appreciate it!
