The room and facilities are dated, but clean and every thing worked well. My room was a bit noisy since it was in the front section, that is nearer the road than the rear elevated unit, where I stayed during my previous booking. Otherwise, an 8 out of 10 experience. Thank you.

A recently refreshed style made this room appealing and the super clean space with comfy beds set everyone at ease The bathroom is a lovley modern white super clean space. The little nook with fridge and microwave and coffee maker was nice and convenient. The hot tub beckoned a few guests out but it was never crowded and I had the tub to myself under the stars. The location allows you to walk to the Good Food Store/ gas station. Would definitley stay again!
