The floors were very dirty, I used a hand towel to wipe up a spill by the sink and it was black when I finished. the room was a little cluttered with furniture not leaving much room to move around. our stay otherwise was not bad. We were told there wasn't much to the continental breakfast so we just left and did not even check it out.

Nice people running it but kind of shabby. The AC unit was very noisy and the bathtub was dirty when we arrived. They immediately came to clean it, but it spoke to a lack of quality control. I don’t think it will get better because all the staff are family members, and you can’t fire a relative.
