6/10 Okay
"Arrived to find out there was a planned power outage for 8 hours during the day for the third day we would be there. Not their fault but there was no notification prior nor offer for inconvenience. Thankful to have family nearby we could visit for the day. Rooms were clean and nice but beds were not very comfortable and quite creaky with any movement (two queen room). Otherwise our stay was pleasant."
