I personally wouldn’t stay here again as the rooms were much smaller compared to photos, the room was very dusty and the beds aren’t comfortable. They also don’t have curtains so people can look right in through the window (this happened to me and it was very uncomfortable) The staff weren’t friendly and not many parking spots for trailers. 1/10
