This is an hidden gem that I will be back again! We had some unexpected personal issues arise that the staff assisted with sincere support. They did above and beyond with a smile from pre-arrival to the bumps in the road we faced during the stay. The area was beautiful with picturesque street views of the homes in the area. It was like postcard moment as you just took in the surroundings day and night. Thank you for the beautiful experience during a not so beautiful day.

The A/C couldn’t keep the room cool, floors were nasty if you walked around in barefoot your feet bottoms turned black, the bed mattress had deep dips in them and the comforters were stained. There is no where to put your things other than on the floor. Unless you have your own smart tv accounts you want be watching tv. Overall this place is at best ok for a night or two.
