The carpet was riddled with stains, the room smelled musty, the bathroom toilet lid had permanent scratches that made it feel dirty, the walls were marked with stains and scratches, the ceiling was damaged, and there were termites or flying ants inside near windows. Again, staff was so kind. ##### Celeste Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fiona Apr 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We were visiting Stanlake Vineyard and wanted somewhere to stay nearby.
