"Decent property. Only stayed one night and it was good enough for what we needed. I like that there are seating areas in the property. I believe we got one of the pet rooms because it had a small private patio, fake grass, a couple trees and was very secured. I’d definitely bring my dog next time. The property could use some updating. There’s some patching on the wall and unmatching paint."
