It was very good. The breakfast on Sunday morning was lacking as most everything was out at 9:15 AM. Also the area was not as clean as it should have been.

8/10 Very good

The toilet paper holder was hanging off the wall. Clearly happened some time ago! Saturday morning breakfast had no cheese omelette for over a half hour. Many guests reported it with no response. I got tired of waiting. I was told at check in that they were short staffed and rooms would not be attended to as usual, which in my opinion should have resulted in some sort of monetary compensation. Staff was extremely friendly to me but I witnessed an argument between 3 staff members while I was checking out. Very unprofessional!

6/10 Good

Not great
Very friendly staff, BUT the first thing I noticed was that our room kinda smelled and felt damp. We stayed in a double queen on first floor. The sheets were slightly damp. Also the bath water was slightly running when we walked in. The tub looked sketchy, like old and gross. There were tiny gnats on top of one of the beds. Not bed bugs, just little flies. We stayed the night, but it was not comfortable. I wouldn’t stay again, i think it just needs a renovation. I wish i took pictures, i want to be fair to the business. it just wasn't great.
