Clean Room Dirty Halls

The room was extremely nice and clean with the exception of a broken shower curtain rod it was good. The hallway getting to the room was extremely stinky and dirty. There were stains all over the carpet and the cigarette smell was strong.

Very clean rooms. Very nice staff. A lot better than expected. We had 2 rooms. And my mother was worried because of some of the reviews. But loved her room as much as we loved ours once we got there.

Affordable

We stayed for 3 nights and room was ok. Except under the beds were dirty and we had dogs with us and was always trying to get under to eat whatever was down there. Overall the rest of room was clean. The price was affordable and close to where we were site seeing. The dog station had no bags and no trash bag so we did see a lot of dog poo around the grounds.
