Vending machine is conveniently out of order so a bottle of water from the hotel stash cost $4. The staff was friendly and efficient. The property is difficult to find even using Google maps due to limited or no roadway signage.

Only problem I had was the receptionist was on her cell phone trying to hold a conversation while I was trying to give her my info. I had to repeat myself multiple times because she couldn’t listen to us both at the same time. Other than that, our stay was great. Hotel clean, breakfast great!
