We will never stay here ever. They use harsh chemicals to clean the room and we had to air the room out. Problem is the windows dont have screens on them and the mosquitoes and bugs were sure to get in. Plus they had a power outage and we were not offered other accommodations until we went looking into it. We chose a refund instead of accommodations. After they promised a refund they reneged on the agreement. There is other more hospitable and affordable places we have stayed at than this. Dont be fooled over some fake review or IG influencer.

Unfortunately we did not enjoy our stay. Our room was clean and the person working at the front desk was kind, but overall I would not recommend this motel. There was a loud noise that kept us up all night which sounded like the sewer system or the air conditioning system-not quite sure. My whole family didn't sleep because of it. The water in the shower stayed hot for about 5 minutes and the rest was freezing cold, the lock on the bathroom door is broken, the curtain in the room is broken, and the lamp in our room didn't work until the person at the front desk fixed it for us.

Of course the location is excellent however I didn't really think the property itself was of value paid for it. The room was quite outdated and while clean I honestly don't think the price paid for it is worth the room itself. Im quite sure the property is making you pay for the location. I found it disappointing that they could deliver the breakfast only on a certain time. I understand any logistical issues that might arise but honestly 7:45 is just too late. I'm sure there are plenty of people that would like to depart before that.

The rooms are nice and the property is neat and clean. The breakfast delivered to your room is very convenient, but I am not wild about eating in the room and the food was at best mediocre.
