This property is very run down. Bathroom ceiling paint was pealing, dirty and had lots of carpenter ants. Sheets were thread bare and air conditioner was loud. Whole property needs an upgrade. Would not stay there again.

A very tired facility with noisy ac unit, noisy fridge and uncomfortable beds. Breakfast was basic and limited in choices. We had planned to stay 2 nights but were glad that a second night was not available when we booked. We would not book again.

Wasn’t sure what to expect based on the previous reviews. My family was pleasantly surprised - comfortable beds, quiet room, and basic breakfast to get us going in the morning. Yes, the property is very dated, but the price was cheap, so I’d say good value if you’re just looking for somewhere to sleep for the night.
