I loves the staff and service! The rooms are just out dated but it's not bad. I wish there were more places to plug stuff into the outlets in the room were all used by stuff in the room being the building is just older. Room was clean just noisy weather the walls are thin or just older building. Noise doesn't bother me but I know some people can't stand it.

Very clean and check in was great. It's a motel. No frills. We had a family cottage. It was 2 rooms; queen bed in one and bunk bed and twin in the other. The door knob to get in is very wobbly, not secure. There are only a couple of oulets. Had to plug phone in bathroom outlet, and had to leave the light on for power. No TV in the 'kids' bedroom. No sitting area, so we had to just all sit on the bed to watch TV. Not very comfortable. If you want a place just to sleep, it is fantastic! If youre going to spend any time in the room, I would book a different place.

The pool was very nice. There were charcoal grill on the grounds should you want to cook. The room had issues. The A/C was improperly installed, allowing the window to be left open, letting in bugs, outside air and noise. There is no smoking around the place, however that didn't stop smokers from smoking cigarettes and weed. The room was very dark with only 2 working lights.The bathroom was very small, not much "working room" & no hair dryer. The hooks by the shower for the bath towels was broken. The hot water was very hot! Only 1 available electrical socket to plug into. There was a table in the room, but only one chair. Not much attention to detail, but ok for 1 night, however we were there for 4 nights and would not come back again.

Let’s start with Cons…. It’s July 4th weekend and the pool was not available although it’s listed an available amenity. I only came here because the pool was said to be open. Imagine my surprise when they tell me it is not. 🙄 The TVs in the room did not work. There was no cable, no direct tv, nothing. Pros: Rooms were clean, although there were the one or two bugs. Bathrooms were clean and fresh clean towels were provided. The train did the scare us a few times but it was fine. For the future, you should list on your site or send a message to guests when they reserve that the pool is not working.
