I did not like the cigarette burns, nor stains on the bed sheets. Two wall outlets didn’t work properly. Room was clean though and very quiet.

Very friendly staff and clean room. Blinds had a hole so people could see in the room and we were near the office more people about. A ratty looking riding mower sitting outside our room did not look appealing.

2/10 Poor

We did not stay at this property. The owner showed us 4 rooms and they all smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. The lobby was filthy and smelled like cat urine. The exterior of the main building had broken furniture laying around. Garbage and leaves covered the entry way. The owner or he guy that took our credit card could not even run a credit card, he ran through Uncle Buck's Liquor store. I'm not sure if that is even legal. I want to know how Expedia could even offer a property like this. WE will be askingfor our money back.
