This property is not as pictured. The pictures I booked based off of were clean, white, cozy, wine and cheese in the lobby, and a fireplace in every room...what we got was a lobby with no staff present the whole stay, a room with a deer head over the bed and retro metal patio chair for seating. The fireplace did not work and the only way to turn the lamp off was to unplug it. It was at least clean, but nit what we expected.

Our room had some maintenance issues that need to be dealt with especially for the rate we paid. The lobby was closed and torn apart apparently for remodeling. We were not made aware of this when making our reservation.
