The hotel was perfect and spacious. The only thing was when it rained 🌧 🙃 we got wet to the entrance to our room because of the location...maybe adding a overhang to help with not getting wet.

It was a nice stay though the room was not what you would expect at the price point. Two of the walls were in need of repairs, windows needed some cleaning, coffee in room was a kettle with tea like bags of coffee that tasted awful, and bathroom had pretty much nothing in it.
