Overall, property was good. Quiet time was excellent, because walls are thin. Mattresses are due for replacement, wall tile, caulking in bathrooms could use a little updating, overall I would book again.

Nice place with quiet rooms and comfy beds. Didn’t take advantage of the pool as we were in late and out early. Breakfast worked as well! The area outside around back was a bit run down but still was good!
