It was clean and the price was reasonable. We were going to be a late arrival so we called to confirm that they would hold the room. They were great about our late arrival and were very welcoming when we got there.

Liked: Staff & service
The man at the frount deck was very friendly. The property is old and no frills. The pool was out of order and appeared to have been for some time. (Id call first) I did think the beds we uncomfortable.. extra firm. But the sheets and towels were clean. It was just average but ok for a couple nights stay for the price.
