Customer service

When I checked in on Thursday the clerk was waiting on another family and she did the most amazing job getting their room/reservation straightened out. She was patient and friendly and was great at problem solving. Then it was my turn, she did a fantastic job checking us in, no problems or issues. We’ll definitely stay there again.

For the price during high season, this place was great. Small room and shower, but as a solo traveler, this didn't bother me. The room could use new carpet, but it was clean.

Liked: Amenities
They are under new management. Not as friendly as the original owners. The light switch didn't work in one area of the room. The light switch was hard to find in the dark bathroom. The fan didn't work in the bathroom making it very steamy after a shower. The continental breakfast was so minimal. Tubs are stained & old. The grounds were nice. Spacious rooms. Things need to be fixed & updated.
