Not worth to pay 400 plus dollars for this. Dirty carpet, room smells, old ceiling with patches, only 2 towels provided, no towel for the shower floor, very small space . Ice machine is so dirty and rusty.

Anniversary
There to celebrate an anniversary. Very relaxing and comfortable. I wish that the breakfast meats had been cooked better though. I asked the attendant about it and she said that they were safe, that they had been cooked to the correct temperature. I am always skeptical about undercooked pork products.
