Our family enjoyed staying here, the only downsides were that there are no curtains for privacy in any of the rooms and one of the comforter sets needs to be upgraded due to being very worn. Overall it is a good place to stay ##### Jasmine Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Truc Sep 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The house is nice and clean.
