Just ok…nice staff but room was gross. Pet stains everywhere and smelled like pet urine
Pros:

Location, breakfast, staff friendliness were great.

Cons:

Our room stunk like dog urine and there were pet urine stains all over the carpet. In one corner of the room there was a bunch of grass and sticks….someone obviously didn’t vacuum. Our shower floor was dirty.

Good food, Great location, cleanliness could use work.
Pros:

The breakfast was great. Kitchen area very clean and well kept.

Cons:

The shower was dirty when we made it into our room. I had to clean it up some myself and shower in our sandals because it was gross. It looks as if it hadn’t been cleaned well in quite some time. A clean shower is a must.

Cons:

Booked for a family of 5. Only 2 queen beds and no cot available...room should not have been recommended if there were not enough places for everyone to sleep. No key available for room cause room key machine was broken. Had to be escorted to room every time we left

Good enough.
Pros:

The location was convenient for a family party. It was easy to find and far enough from the highway so that we did not hear the traffic. I like that the room was spacious enough for all of our gear, including two gravel bikes.

Cons:

I did not like that our room was not supplied with bottled water, and that there was no filtered water readily available after the closing of the breakfast area. I did not like that the breakfast area closed early the Monday of our departure (5 minutes makes a difference).
