24hr Getaway for two

Great location, hotel is in the middle between downtown bars/restaurants a few blocks away and is more on the quieter side by the two caves and winery. The one cave at Perry’s has a butterfly house, classic cars and putt-putt, The other cave is a Geo and Winery across the street. Both places are great.The room was clean and comfortable. Staff was amazing, friendly and very helpful. You’re able to rent golf carts as well (all day or by the hr.) Perfect place to celebrate birthday for a quick 24hr trip.

Disliked: Amenities
The rooms were average. They said there was breakfast and there was nothing. They said there was a pool and hot tub but they had closed it for the season, they also said there was a bar and restaurant on site but was also closed down. I imagine if it were earlier in the season they would have all the amenities.

The room was barely big enough for anything other than the bed. No chair or any place to sit. The price for what we got was rather high for the off-season. Staff was very nice though.

The hotel was old. The TV in the room did not work and we weren’t able to watch it at all the whole time There was no breakfast. The first two hours we were threatened to be put out because of music and it was between 8-9pm. We had to tip toe around the whole weekend so we wouldn’t lose $1,033 on the room. There were ants crawling in the bathroom. No beach towels. I guess that’s what happens when you book three weeks out.
