The room was not in ideal condition. Especially the bathroom. The overall condition of the room was not BAD but definitely could use improvement. The owner/manager was very helpful and pleasant. The breakfast was satisfactory. I shortened my stay by one day to return home early, even though I could not be refunded for that.
