Food was good but our room had stuff behind the end table. The tv was not working, staff knew but didn’t tell us and when we complained, did not offer discount. For price we paid, it was a disappointment!

The room was average. They didn’t do housekeeping unless you asked for it. Only a sliver of soap for showering and when asked for more only got one more sliver. Very quiet but went during off season. Loved the fact they had a bar/restaurant attached. Pool was nice. Didn’t use shuttle service.

Room was fine. Building is dated but quaint. My wife and I stopped for a drink in the bar at the end of the day and the tab was staggering. Tourist prices.
