Neat, tidy and reasonable!
Although the room was small, it was well appointed and immaculate. They even brought back the shower curtain after washing it!

DO. NOT. BOOK. HERE. Unless you want to risk sleeping on bed bugs, don't stay here. I checked in and immediately checked out. Incredibly sketch, not clean, not livable.

The rooms and pool look nothing like what’s advertised. There was black stuff all over the bathroom door. One bed tilted towards the head, not very comfortable. We were there for a baseball tournament and we ended up leaving early. And checking into a different place.

I liked that each room was it’s own little “tiny house.” It was very quiet and felt like a safe area. Lots of food options near by. The room could have used some cosmetic updates and the shower was tiny, but overall a good place to sleep.

Cottages are small but nice. Would have been 5 star if there was a bath tub instead of only a shower.
