Stayed 1 night

The room was clean but poorly maintained burnt iron mark in the carpet, rusty fridge. It was ok for a 1 night stay. A little pricey for its quality.

The room, and most importantly the bed was very comfortable!! I also liked that it was right in the middle of everything. I would definitely stay again in the future!!

Stayed 2 nights

First, we stayed on the ground floor which would've been okay except the blinds were broken so people passing by could see directly into the room! The bathroom floor had permanent stains. The property/rooms looked like an OLD Motel 6. We paid over $500 for 2 nights which was a total rip off for what we received. I'll never stay there again.
