"Stayed off season. Cost was $400 for one night. So my expectations are a bit higher for that price point. Room was clean but incredibly small. Im only 5 feet tall and thought everything was incredibly tight. There was a fridge and microwave also glasses and placesettings yet no table to sit at which is odd. The bed was just okay and the sheets were dreadful. Again, if you are going to charge that for a night my expectations will reflect that. Staff was very friendly. "
