Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pros: The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. Cons: This is a very barebones set-up. Nobody checks guests in (or rather, it's all over text/email) and there is no staff around. In the rooms, the cement floors are very cold, there is a shortage of surfaces, and one little hook for clothes & coats. The bathroom fixtures were coming out of the wall and there were scratches & scuffs all over the door. Everything felt very cheaply made. During my stay, the power went out and there was a pile of leaves outside my door I had to trudge through. The reality doesn't live up to the cute photos. Wouldn't recommend, wouldn't stay here again.

Overall, I really did like the property. I definitely looked a little cheaper than What I was expecting with the price paid The cleanliness of the place was overall pretty well, but there was stains on our bedsheets. They did them as asked, which was nice and they did come and clean the room, which was really nice.

Shower was weird, didn’t have a lot of water pressure in it. Heating unit in room kept making a weird noise. Floor was super cold, as it was concrete and no carpet or rug on it. My doors extra lock was broken. Most of the outlets in the room did not work.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I was not satisfied with ehat they call a Executive Suite. Had to kills many bugs in the bathroom. Rug in living area has wrinkles that do not lay flat causing a safety issue. Asked to empty the dehumidifier. Doing that since it was full was disgusting. The inside was so dirty I would throw it out snd buy a new one. Find it hard to believe that the owners or cleaning staff wouldn’t see these issues and correct them. Chose this place for location and that it had a good rating. Stayed three nights and in my experience this place is over rated and should not be charging the rates they do. I travel all the time and this is the worst place I have ever stayed at.

Dirty. No one cleaned before we entered. Food from previous guest in the fridge. Trash that I won't describe in the trash bin. Rug sopping wet from a recent rainfall. When I reached out by text (the only way to reach them) they asked me to inform the cleaner in the morning.
