Good, but ick.

I didn't like the dusty towel rack in the bathroom, the dead bugs on the window sill, or the spider on the ceiling. Loved that there was a patio, but it wasn't clean. Everything else was good.

It was clearly well-kept, had everything we needed for a comfortable night's stay and nothing we didn't. We arrived early evening and owner wasn't there but left the key and details for us. Bathroom lotions and soaps were nice, and so was the heat lamp!

Liked: Amenities
Disliked: Cleanliness
I knew it was an older property. But expected clean floors. When we entered the room I looked at the bathroom floor, I first thought maybe stained? I grabbed a wash cloth and wiped the floor. The wash cloth was black! I washed the washcloth out several times and went over all the floors in the room. I was amazed at how much dirt came up that was without any cleanser and just cold water. We kept our shoes on in the room. My sheet, although I could tell they had been washed, and the linens were clean had a blood stain on it. The patio was covered in debris and when you went out there and came back in the room, you tracked it back in. If the floors were clean, this room would've been fine and I wouldn't have complained at all, but they were disgustingly dirty.

Quaint

Quaint little place to stay. The bed was comfortable. There is a microwave, fridge & small coffee pot in the room. We had a small, private area off the back with an outdoor table & chairs. Wish there was a broom to brush off the twigs & leaves from nearby trees, otherwise it was nice.

Second time staying over the past few years . The location is perfect , the attached restaurant is legendary with outstanding food. Quaint rooms with clean and comfortable amenities. Love the friendly and accommodating staff , ice and water machine is the icing on the cake. Short walk into town for shopping and dining options. Golf and pickle ball across the street . Great value for all the extras.
