Roomy and quiet. Pool was open til 1am! Easy wifi. EV charger just a short walk next door. Breakfast was convenient with to-go boxes and a lady making mini waffles fresh. Especially appreciated an extra sink being in with the toilet and shower-tub.

Have stayed here previously. Went back as love the view , although a tree was blocking some of the view from our room this trip. Rooms for the most part are clean. Floor in room was sticky, coffee pot had not been cleaned, and a wash cloth was hanging up stained with coffee. Breakfast was good, and area is quiet. Would stay again

The staff were pleasant and attentive. Parking was easy and convenient. The beds were comfortable and clean. The carpet and sofa however appeared dirty and smelled very musty and moldy. We needed to wear shoes to walk on the carpet as it felt wet.

Ownership has a very rude attitude, they don’t really know how to handle complains, after I complained to the hotel Staff about one of the owners having her dogs swimming at the pool she came to me in a fighting attitude Instead of listening and understand her paying guests, because her dogs where swimming a the hotel pool she complained about us eating at the pool just to justify her actions, by the way no signs where posted anywhere in the pool area. Too bad that she don’t understand how to run a business.

I am uncomfortable with dogs swimming in the pool( even when the hotel do not allow pets in the premices) When we raised our concerns, we were retaliated against by the owner's daughter-in-law, who is also the dog's owner.
