6/10 Okay

My overall impression of the property was decent for a last minute get away. When we arrived at the property there was plenty of room for parking. There was someone staying in the little house that was attached to the house which we thought was a little strange but that person never bothered us. When we walked inside the decor was very cute but it definitely could use some renovations. The bathroom is where we thought could use some work. The latch to flush the toilet broken when we got there so we had to be extra careful flushing the toilet, the water pressure for the shower wasn’t good. Overall, for a last minute trip I would recommend this place.
