Terrible Experience – Do Not Recommend
This place was absolutely filthy. The carpets were dirty, the bathrooms were dirty , and the sheets looked like they hadn’t been changed – full of marks and unpleasant smells. I felt uncomfortable the entire stay. Definitely not worth the money. Avoid if you care about cleanliness.

Beds were old and creaky. WiFi wasn’t working. Seemed they were short staffed for their breakfast to keep items stocked. Would be helpful to have more than 1 waffle maker. Staff was friendly. For the cost it worked for a quick weekend getaway
