Very comfortable place to stay. Easy to get around to all events. The only thing i would change is the thickness of mattress was a bit hard on my old back. Would definitely book again

Simple room accommodations

This was a simple stay, as we were in town for state wrestling. It’s a small room with many accommodations. It says it sleeps 3 but I disagree and say it sleeps 2. Check in was easy. Communication with host was great. The only things I would negatively comment about are: bathroom had some hairs in the shower and no shampoo (not an issue for me because I brought my own). The dryer was confusing, as to how to dry the clothes I washed. There was no dishwashing soap. There was tablets for the dishwasher but I wanted to clean the bowls after eating. Again…not huge things just things. I’d stay here again.
