Jill

Liked: Staff & service
The bed was comfortable. And two comfortable chairs. The carpet and curtains were shabby, and it smelled very musty. Seemed clean enough, except for the smell, and a small full trashcan there when we arrived. No local tv channels I could find, or streaming services. Clanky AC, although it did keep us cool. Decent price, but had to pay $40 extra for our two small doggies. Not worth it for us. I wouldn’t stay again.
