WELL, TO BEGIN WITH, WE CHECKED IN AT 4 O'CLOCK AND COULD NOT GET OUR ROOM TILL 6 O'CLOCK. THAT WAS PRETTY FRUSTRATED. THE REST OF THE STAY WAS OKAY BUT I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED MY HUNDRED DOLLAR DEPOSIT FOR INCIDENTIALS BACK YET, AND IT'S BEEN A MONTH

It’s hard to write a bad review —AND our experience at this property was not good. The main issue is that the photos posted online are either out of date or completely inaccurate or quite frankly totally misleading. The building seemed to be in terrible repair, access to our room required traversing multiple rickety staircases, then the room itself wasn’t clean or comfortable. We had planned to stay two nights but cancelled the second night immediately upon arrival. Stay somewhere else. It’s not worth the trouble. This town is cute but that doesn’t matter if you’re trapped in a roach motel for your stay.
