Special shout out- I was in a hurry and needed laundry and the host let me in the laundry room a little early to help me in a pinch to get my clothes cleaned before having to keep traveling. That was next level service. Also, the kitchen staff ladies allowed my wife and I to eat and even get an extra biscuit and extra bacon that was already put away. We arrived at 10:03am but the two ladies were so sweet and gracious to us. Muy fantastico. ##### Jeffrey Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Linda 30 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a spacious room with lots of counter space and electrical outlets. The bed was great as were sheets, pillows and duvet. It made me feel comfortable because these things were so clean. Breakfast and the ladies that keep it filled were really great. Lots of variety and some interesting temptations elevated breakfast. The bathroom drains were slow, my only negative. ##### Linda Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathleen 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This was a great place to stay with a family.
