"We really enjoyed our stay\! The property was very nice, clean, and comfortable\. The only downside was that the directions to the property were difficult to follow, which made finding it a bit frustrating\. It also would have been nice to have a microwave and a Keurig coffee maker available\. Other than those minor issues, it was a great place to stay, and we would definitely consider staying here again\. The hot tub was fantastic!"

8/10 Good
"I was pleasantly surprised by my 2-night stay. Generally, hotels with lower room rates can be pretty disappointing, but that was not the case here. The check-in process was quick, and the front desk staff was friendly. My room was clean and even smelled clean. The building could use a little interior updating. One thing I would suggest is getting rid of the complimentary breakfast. Putting a couple of containers of cereal and a jug of milk on the counter is not really breakfast. Overall, this was a good stay with a good price. I would not hesitate to stay here again."
