Place was comforting. Staff was really helpful and nice, they were able to answer concerns and questions also. The parking was clean and inviting, and the room was clean as well. Having an infant, we appreciated that this place had a microwave and refrigerator. A small thing was that we couldnt find the remote control in the room when it was time to wind down. Other than that, everything was great.

Great charming hotel
The room was very clean and spacious. The pool was heated which was fun for the family. Excellent location and very nice property. Only downside was the cable wasn't working so we couldn't watch any TV. But other than that, we were very pleased with our stay

Clean simple room with a nice large bathroom, only downside was the extra large bathroom seems to come at the cost of a smaller main room. Queen with two people was just the right size for two people and a couple bags, but if you have multiple suitcases each I'd suggest a bigger option

Stay was good but next time gonna ask for a room on the second floor. At 1am the guest upstairs kept walking back and forth and we can hear him doing this for almost 30 mins and it kept us up. Other than that it was nice
