My room had wall paper that was peeling off the walls and was very stuffy. It also had red stains on the carpet. There was plenty of space in the room and the bed and pillows were comfy.

It was a quiet and beautiful place to stay. I was there for a wedding didn’t much like that they had no air conditioning or ceiling fans in the reception area. It was unbearably hot in there. But other wise she had a beautiful amazing wedding with delicious food

We came for a wedding and enjoyed it. Except we tried to go to Willy T’s and couldn’t sit down because the booked out the whole restaurant for Mother’s Day. We thought for as much as the room is there would be free breakfast or something
