Property had a nice garden area and was on a creek that acted as white noise, so it was a soothing location. Close to downtown. Friendly staff. Clean kitchen area.

We checked into the property for a 11 night stay. We paid the full amount $549 upon checking in. My husband has a bad back and after one night at of sleeping on a soft mattress, his back was worse. We asked for a refund but were given $203 which included the $5 deposit for the key. It cost us $346 for 1 night.

Never again.
Location is in the middle of town which is very convenient. However, the room smelled though was clean. One of the cushions had something weird smeared on it. And after we checked out, they refused to let us use a bathroom! It was kind of ridiculous. Also, if they call you a taxi be ready to pay much more than a taxi off the street (20 vs 35 dollars!).

Simple, clean. We had a private room with a private bathroom. A/C in the room. Nice little deck and small back garden area next to a stream. Quiet place, outside of but walkably close to the town center.

Very good experience
Nice and quiet place that backs onto a small river with a quaint garden. The room was good, but no A/C. The staff is excellent. Great location a couple blocks off the busy main street.
