The staff were friendly and the room was comfortable but it was a noisy location due to proximity of freeway and main road into town. Also, outside noise and loud conversation right outside our window early in the morning beginning at 7:30am from cleaning staff and possibly guests.

This is a solid 5 star 4 star property. Everything was fine. They are in a remodel but except for the need to run the hot water for a few minutes to get hot enough to shower the place is in a good location and very reasonable.

SUSAN

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The queen bed I paid for was a double. The bed was uncomfortable, as were the pillows. The desk person was grumpy and took several hours to bring the extra pillow I requested. There was not one single drawer or closet in the room, just 3 wall hooks and 4 feet of counter space, and no luggage rack. There were some hangers on a single hook in the bathroom. We had to use the counter space for our clothing to keep it off of the floor. The room was cute and unique but small. The bathroom was large. I wouldn't have minded terribly about the lack of drawers and closet if only there was a comfortable bed.

Very clean accommodation inside and out. Great grass area for my pet and outdoor covered patio area with lots of tables and chairs to accommodate guests. Also provided plenty of coffee and sugars and creamers. Also provided soaps shampoos and conditioners blow dryers. Very nice accommodation. I will be staying there again.
