Low quality environment. No hair dryer, hand soap, or iron in the room. You could heat absolutely everything going on outside through the walls. Sheets were clean but the shower had not been cleaned, as there was hair in the shower upon our arrival.

Nice but terrible tech abilities.

Nice place, however WiFi was terrible. Also - no cellular service available until I would drive off property. Also, TV kept freezing and turning off. I did not ask front desk to rectify since we were only there for the night and didn’t have time to wait.
