Cute Stay <3
I was skeptical because of the reviews but i LOVED it here! So close to everything! The check in/check out process was fast and the staff was so nice! The place is timeless, cute little oldish hotel (i loved this about it) the bed was comfy, roomy mini fridge. I would definitely book here again. Also, very inexpensive for being mid July!

The lights kept turning on randomly in the night, the bed was uncomfortable, the "view" was obscured by dirty windows and screens, the shower was a trickle

Definitely on the much older side of a hotel, horrible people upstairs just stomping which made sleep miserable and even sleeping in late because of the stomping

I know that the hotel is old, but make an effort to get the room and the linens clean (cobwebs) and maintain the condition of the toilet and sink. The staff is friendly though.

Okay hotel
Its an okay hotel to stay within your budget. Unfortunately the t.v didnt work and the front desk had lied and said the next day they were going to be up and running but that was a lie. The heater in the other room from the cottage also didnt work wish i would of known i have a 1 year old and my poor son ended up getting a cold the next morning. Employees were really nice i really appreciated that though.my issue is more of them not specifying these things and being honest. My room also had a hole and the door stopper was broken off.
