It was “ok” for a few days trip. Location was excellent, walk to grocery and restaurants/shops. Requested late checkout and was given an extra hour. Used the circuit car transportation which was very nice. If you check in late, no one will be there. We were given the room keycode which was fine but I prefer to have staff available especially at 1:00 am! The office was actually closed one day, all day, so hopefully you don’t need anything like pool towels. Bed was hard, ceiling fan had no pull string so was inoperable, remotes were sticky/filthy. Clock on wall was out of battery. Couch had a huge stain on the cushion. Didn’t get clean towels until day 3. Pool was dirty, lots of bird poop, finally cleaned on day 3. Pool deck provides nice covered tables and 4 lounge chairs. Need to trim back some foliage around pool. This property has so much potential! It needs some TLC and attention paid to details. It would make all the difference.

Nice little boutique motel. Stayed here the night before our cruise. Needed ultra late check-in as flight arove at midnight. Communication with staff was difficult as nobody answered the phone when calling a couple days in advance. Once we connected all went well as they provided room number and key code for the door

Horrible horrible...would not answer phone...tried for 6 weeks. Wouldn't answer emails to confirm a handicapped room. Expedia couldn't even get them to answer their phone. Ended up just not going there. Out $200, but at least my handicapped friend could get in the room we ended up getting. They finally reached out the day before we needed the room and by then we had given up and gotten another room. Expedia should not be doing business with them

Parking is directly beside the building. The guest rooms are the bare basics, no frills. The bathroom is nicely lit and appointed. The pool area and courtyard are delightful. On the negative side, their is regular noise from passing traffic, and late night dips in the pool by excited children or adults unaware of the volume of their conversation. The mattress was the worst part as they are old and uncomfortable.
