The couple that runs the place have done a great job of making sure it is comfortable and clean. The flowers everywhere are wonderful. So, don't expect Marriott, however, for the convenience and price, you can't go wrong. ##### Theresa Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kai Nov 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The room had a comfy bed and nice extras such as a fridge and microwave.
