I really liked the rooms, but I am a modern minimalist so it appealed to me. I did not like the Bible in the room so hid it during my stay. The staff seemed to lack training and often the front desk staff were absent. Coffee is HORRIBLE! and it would be nice to have a small outdoor area for sitting. But it was affordable and I would stay there again.
