I had a child with me and there were needles outside the property. Shared parking i did not have a parking spot. The pull out bed was on a slope and no cots for my child to sleep on. Plus pull out bed had no sheets or bedding on it. They switched us rooms at 11:30pm to accommodate my child and we seen bugs in the room so i couldnt even sleep there. The breakfast didnt have sausage they had eggs overcooked . Was not pleased didnt eat that morning.

This is a beautiful property. The charm of the old courthouse has been maintained and it is quite nice. A couple of things put a damper on my stay though. 1- The room was cold and I couldn't get it warm. Not well insulated and the heating was not up to the task. Had the thermostat set to 78 and it never got above 70. 2- No hot water in the morning. Stagger your shower time. The hot water tank/heater, whatever, clearly didn't work well enough.
