The room was clean and the pool was great. The one thing is they called it an inn when there is no restaurant.

Room was recently redone and clean. If you can put up with the traffic noise and the sounds of shoes on the floor if you're in a first-floor room, it's a good place to stay for a couple of nights or so.

Our stay was pleasant and the staff was friendly and our room was very clean. The only problem was that we couldn’t sit on the loveseat that was in our room because it smelled, other than that everything else was great. It isn’t noisy considering that the main road is right there, we will stay there again !!!! 👍👍
