Although the room was clean, the carpet was damp and musty. It felt like it had been shampooed, but not allowed to properly dry.

Loved the staff! The property overall was very nice! My room was cramped. I think because there were 2 beds there wasn’t much room for much else. I had a hard time getting my clothes in the closet. I also had to iron some clothes and had to put the ironing board in the bathroom. If the room only had one bed it would have been really comfortable. But the staff really made the stay very welcoming!
