Host Kevin went out of his way to assist us after hours driving back from home to fix the TV in our room. He also cooks a full breakfast for guests.

This was one of the most disappointing stays I’ve experienced. The property is in very poor condition: the heating did not work, the towels were not clean, and the curtain was not working, causing me to wake up at 5 a.m. due to daylight. The overall facilities felt very old and poorly maintained. The only positive aspect was the very friendly and nice staff.
