Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Worst Place we Have Ever Stayed."
Overall Score2.0/ 5
The bathroom door was hung incorrectly, so it squeaked and wouldn't close. The bed squeaked. The recliner broke in the recline position and wouldn't come back up. My husband has Parkinson's. We had a terrible time getting him out of it! We won't stay there again.
