Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Would not stay here again. There was mold in shower and there was POOR water pressure. There wires hanging out of wall. Beds were very hard. Shared balcony with strangers. No locks for door. No vending machine. The website said you could alacarte off the menu but it ended up being you had to pay 26$ for the all you can eat buffet. Poor internet, no phone, no tv, had to go to front to get iron. Definitely not worth the price.

This is the place you go to if you want to get a way but don’t like camping. This place is beautiful in the spring. Quiet. The complimentary breakfast is a real breakfast. It’s clean. I felt safe. I only wish they had a second lock on the door of the room. The rooms do not have TV’s. Or a phone. So. It feels like camping. It allowed me to unwind from the noise of the world. I didn’t have great cell service in my room. But they have free WiFi. So you can make phone calls using their WiFi. This also allowed more rest. Just peace and quiet. To listen to the birds and read. If you want to just be for a day or two. Or longer. Without the noise of life. But close to restaurants, shopping and awesome views. This is the place to go. I definitely plan to go back.
