We had reserved a king size bed and only got a queen suze bed, also the toilet kept making noises through out the day and night like if someone was flushing the toilet.

The place was clean which is most important to me but the property is very dated. It was worth it for the price I paid but it is very basic and all I really needed was a place to sleep on my way back home.

Excellent stay. Two gripes
Very nice property I like the quaint size, the bathroom was super nice in the room but the tv was very old and not very good. Also there was an active construction site going off every morning pretty much right outside my door due to room location /: but with time that will go away. Not the owners fault in any form
