6/10

The room was quite dated but clean. The restaurant was excellent with very friendly waitresses. We would stay there again because it was economical. Could use a bed upgrade.

Limited options in this area. The rooms are obviously old (staining on walls, bathtub, towels, peeling wallpaper, goles in window screens), but the bed was comfortable enough, there is running water, and a restaurant on site.

8/10

If you just want a clean place to sleep, outfitted with a microwave, fridge and a restaurant this will work. The beds were ok and the location was convenient to park trails. It was extremely hot the first night but the a/c was so loud we turned it off and opened the windows. In our unit there was a lack of accessible electrical sockets so if you have a few things you need to plug in for charging better bring your own multi-plugin power bar etc.
