Not Worth the Money
We got in late, close to midnight, and the check-in clerk looked and acted annoyed that she had to be there. The room had a “smell” to it. Both showers drained super-slow, there were spiderwebs in the master bath and on the light fixture over the dining table, the light fixture was dusty too. The microwave was missing a panel on the inside, it looked damaged but surprisingly it worked (only used it once though). If this is what staying at a resort is like, I’ll stick to chain hotels in the future.

Needs more attention to detail
Blinds were broken in master bedroom. But still had curtains. Found cockroach crawling on bathroom floor the first night we stayed. Found spider in kitchen sick, mid stay. Washing machine very dirty on rim of tub and lid. Would not use. It was a first floor apartment, which we would have had to share. Did not like that. Also requested to have unit close to lobby and we were in Massachusetts culdesac. Did not like that there were NOT designated parking spaces for each unit. Also dead bug spots on wall in corner of living room.

We thoroughly enjoyed our quiet getaway weekend. Sitting outside enjoying our coffee while listening to the soothing sounds of nature on our mosquito-free patio was just what the doctor ordered! The large walk-in shower was a bonus as well. This space provided all we needed and more. We hope to return soon.
