    helpful staff
    broken amenities

    Family with children, avoid at all costs!

    The person at the front desk was kinda helpful, but when we got to our room, it was a disaster. The TV didn’t work! I had to fix it myself!

    It wasn’t exactly affordable, but you know what, I’m never coming back.

    soundproofing concerns

    I truly appreciated the lovely and spacious room with a fully equipped kitchenette, making it easy to prepare our own meals. The felt decor and cozy atmosphere reminded me of home, which was so comforting during my stay.

    Improved soundproofing would enhance the peaceful stay.

    thin walls

    Walls in the room were annoyingly thin, clearly letting in noise from fellow travelers, which could disrupt a peaceful night. The bed size was a bit cramped, particularly when preferred options like a queen weren't available, which may affect the quality of sleep for couples. Bright light from the parking lot intruded at night due to poorly fitting curtains, impacting that much-needed darkness for rest.

    Comfy stay, friendly vibes!

    I had a nice 2-night stay in a king room. The bed was super comfy, and the room seemed recently updated, which was a nice surprise. Danny, the owner, is super friendly and really makes you feel welcome. The only bummer was that I heard some noise outside at night. Still, a great spot overall!

    The room was surprisingly spacious, with no carpet to worry about. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and having a full kitchen was a major bonus. I left feeling relaxed and satisfied. This place is a hidden gem for a peaceful getaway.
