Sparsely furnished but well-kept rooms. Great location but badly unkempt grounds. No coffee anywhere. Hardly worth the relatively high price.

The view with a private balcony was nice, we watched the sunset on the water. But the room was not as expected in the pictures. Super old and outdated. Small bed in what looked like an apartment.Mild odor from just age and probably smoking at one point.note horrible just didn’t smell refreshing and clean I would have rather had new furniture and look over the extra large space We did book last minute so maybe we were given what was left. Our main reason of staying was dog friendly place.

Office was a little shock. Can use some work. The cleaning lady (Sam) was very nice. Room was clean. She was very helpful. Laundry facilities were very good. Party took place outside on the balcony about midnight the first night. If you had small kids this would have been a no-go.

The manager Wayne was outstanding. Very friendly and did the best with what he had to work with. However, there were people outside of the rooms smoking and hanging on the railings and stairs. The cleaning woman was smoking as she was coming out of a room. On a table outside of one of the rooms was a gatorade bottle half filled with cigarette butts and a brown liquid. Trash on the table and walkway. Owner definately does not put a penny back into the property. It's a shame really, as the location could be amazing. It's right on the river.

I was surprised to have a small kitchenette, but only 2 plastic cups, silverware and a pot. Wood floor was not attached to anything and breaking up. The bathroom window did not shut. There was a massage chair in the room, that did not work, a table and two wood chairs. The parking lot was deteriorating and the marina was totally destroyed. The bed was comfortable, the sheets were clean and the tv worked.

Pros - There was a massage chair is the room which was in good working order and the toilet paper was better quality than even the major chains provide. Con’s - no stopper in the sink, no hot water to shower, not even paper plates for eating but there were eating utensils. No ice available or trays to make ice in the rooms, No wastebasket in the bathroom and no hangers in the wardrobe area.
