Kristina is AMAZING. My best friend and I do an anual "mom-cation" and stayed here the first year. Kristina was wonderful and was the main reason why we stayed here the following trip (this year) She is knowledgable about things going on in the area, helpful and kind.

4/10 Fair

The room was clean and some of the staff were very nice. The sink in our room didn’t drain and this appeared to be a known problem when talking to maintenance. No other room available and after contacting management, there has been no response to my inconvenience. If it wasn’t for this issue, I would rate the facility much better.

Staff was phenomenal. Beds were soft and very comfortable. Heater worked well. Room was clean. Only downside because it is an older building the walls are fairly thin and you can hear louder cars and people out on the street.
