The place was fairly empty (in early December), so not too much interaction with others (for better or worse). The building is old but everything is clean and in great working order. Great water pressure in showers, really clean bathrooms and kitchen, AC worked great (you'll need it), and parking was easy. Security at the gate is no hassle for walking or driving in or out. Front desk was friendly and helpful when I left my key in my room. You can walk to the main part of town in 12 minutes or across the bridge in 20. Would definitely recommend and stay again. ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Alexander 4 Mar 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities They stole my money, I requested for a refund and never did it, also, they are xenophobic people ##### Alexander Stayed 10 nights in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### elizabeth 3 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities They are renovating and changed our reservation without advance notice. The windows would not close all the way letting in mosquitoes and one of our rooms had roaches. Went to front desk and they just handed us roach spray.
