I loved this property! The check-in was a breeze, the room was newly renovated and clean. They had an EV charger free of charge at the front. The breakfast had fresh fruit, cereal, and other good options. I give this hotel a 5 star. It would be nice if they had a hot tub, after a long drive, we still loved it how it is.

This was such a great vacation. This property is absolutely beautiful many many flowers and trees. There were hummingbirds and all kinds of other birds as I was a traveling solo female. It was important that I felt safe. This place is well lit. Of course the fire pit was amazing as well. The manager is not very friendly at all however, all the other staff were wonderful, friendly and kind very accommodating. I highly recommend this establishment.

Our room was fine, except the TV didn't work. The maintenance man, Bubu, was able to fix it after changing some of the equipment. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. We like the outdoor patio area and the dog run. All in all, very satisfied, we will return.

I liked the gardens they had. I liked that it was a bit set off from the street, and the back rooms were quiet. Their price compared to other close was excellent. For fisherman, i liked the area to clean fish, and an outdoor shower after a long day of fishing. I liked their 'continental breakfast', to get juice, cereal, fruit, and coffee as complimentary.
