The rooi felt itself was very outdated but clean. The steps to our room were dangerous and definitely needed maintenance- no lighting on them whatsoever.

Beautiful location. Wonderful to have a direct walk out. The room was not up to code, the bathroom was not clean with mold in the tub. Unfortunately, not well maintained. Tons of potential but, past its prime.
