The place was very cute and cozy. Had all the basic amenities and provided breakfast (oatmeal, fruit, & muffin) in the morning. However, the toilet was extremely low and small, but other than that everything was perfect!

I do really love staying here. Some things might not work but the location and cabin feel is the best. The owners are so nice. Side note, on the check in instructions it says breakfast is only delivered at weekends which was fine as we are up and out early.

Staff is nice, place is super easy to find. Right up the street from the main part of town. Nice view. It’s got everything you need, pretty bare bone but like I said, everything you’ll need. Bed’s old and not very comfy but you’re not living there for the rest of your life so it’s good enough. Overall, great place for the location. You’re close to everything.

Sofa bed mattress had huge yellow marks all over, spots of blood, main bedroom sheets had hair all over, Black mold in the bathroom next to the bathtub, spider webs all over the place, kitchen, only two coffee cups, four plates all mix matched, toilet seat cover was missing, broken blinds by kitchen sink, no paper towel, Location is beautiful, cabin's layout is really cute but when it gets to cleaning standard even one star is too much.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This was a fun if somewhat primitive facility. The room and everything in it is quite miniature: tiny fridge, microwave, one cup coffee maker, etc. lighting was quite dim- bring your book light! Balcony needs to be sanded and painted. But the bed and pillows were very comfy. And the price was right. Breakfast is included only on weekends.
Doll house sized bathroom nonetheless had everything

Stayed in the room with a queen bed and upstairs loft for two kids. Worked out. Small fridge, TV, bathroom, shower. NO BREAKFAST provided. On weekends there is a small breakfast basket at 9 AM. Expedia is not accurate on this. There is hot water, just wait. Perfect launching point for Taquitz and adventures

Clean, adorable little room! The little balcony was a nice place to sit and watch birds and squirrels. Quiet and close to downtown. The ladder to the loft needs attention. The fridge needed attention. Otherwise a very enjoyable stay and I will most definitely be back. Thank you!
