"It fulfilled our needs!"

6.0

Over all, everything was good! Check in and check out was easy. Breakfast was great, plenty of options. Would stay there again!

My only small issue is, certain things need updating. Our window sounded like a siren when the wind was blowing hard, had some mold. Also the bathroom wasn’t the cleanest. Had some mildew, the door stops and hinges were extremely rusty. Little things that could definitely make the rooms more appealing.
