This was one of the dirtiest hotels I have stayed in. There was laminate flooring in the halls and room. I spilled some water on the floor and wiped it up and the towel was black from the grime on the floor.

The area and building is really sketchy. The room was pretty dirty. I should've done more research because I ended up just checking out right away to book a different hotel.

Nice getaway spot

This stuff was very, very friendly. They recommend me a few of the attractions around us cruises. They were also very kind to me and reared me with a smile. I met the owner as well and he sounds very hi.We'll definitely recommend anyone staying here
