The property was exactly as listed with so many little touches that made it special. Communication was great and we were close to downtown shops and the casino. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area.

We needed a place to stay and most of the hotel had no vacancy. Booked 2 nights at this lovely quaint older home and couldn’t have been more pleased. Definitely worth booking again.
