Exterior didn’t appeal, but there were obvious efforts at upgrades/ maybe remodeling inside. Surely the best decor we encountered on this trip — very nice tile in the shower, very nice/warm blanket. Helpful desk clerk.

The pictures online looked way better than the property actually looked. It is quite old. The room was clean. The person who checked us in was very nice. The WiFi was virtually useless. The place wasn’t terrible, but I wouldn’t stay there again.

The woman who checked me in was the sweetest! She offered me a water. She showed me on the map all the sites in the area. The room was clean and everything worked. The only thing that might be a negative, the furniture was a hodge podge of different things. Nothing wrong with it. Just a weird combination of stuff. The bed was comfortable. I would stay again.
