The swimming pool was just what was needed. Quiet, private, and, old growth roses are blooming and smell divine. I wasn’t sure where to get an appropriate swim towel, so I used the one from my room. An unexpected mallard flew in to share the pool with me. Loved it!

2nd floor landing filthy. Food, old bandaids, rusty stairs. Our room was spacious and clean except some towels had old make up stains on them. Tissue box had 3 tissues in it. Employees seemed like tired robots.

It was ok. Cleanliness wasn't great, hair in the shower and sink. Broken outlet cover and questionable outlet behind the bed. The check in time on the confirmation said 3:00 but the sign at the hotel said 4:00. When the employee came into the lobby I was able to check in due to my room being ready. Probably wouldnt stay there again.

There was food and an innersole from a shoe under the bed. No hot water to take a shower. No shampoo or body wash in the dispensers in the shower. Terrible receptionist. I had bug bites on my arm which I suspect were bed bugs. We actually only stayed 1 night and checked out early the next morning.
