I really liked that everything was near by. The room was very clean. The only thing that was concerning was the stairs were slippery when it rains. The need to do something about that it’s not safe.

Be wary of excellent customer ratings
By far, my worst checkin experience ever. 45 minutes to get a room . I had a reservation. Room door locking mechanism appears to be installed upside down. Otherwise, room was nice. Very comfortable bed. Room very clean. Could not get the coffeemaker to work.
