We booked this as we were traveling because the pictures looked good. When we got there at 10 pm it felt very unsafe for our family to stay. We ended up finding a different place on down the road.

I never have left a review before, but this place was the worst place ive ever been at. I was afraid to touch everything. Mold, broken pieces, Spider webs, odor. Hair still in tub and shower. No fan in bathroom, AC barely cooled room. Musty, dusty, disgusting. No amenities other than a refrigerator and microwave which fuctioned moderately.
