Anniversary
There to celebrate an anniversary. Very relaxing and comfortable. I wish that the breakfast meats had been cooked better though. I asked the attendant about it and she said that they were safe, that they had been cooked to the correct temperature. I am always skeptical about undercooked pork products.

Toilet was leaking, shower floor was very dirty, bathroom floor very dirty at the corners, AC unit had tape where it’s broken and carpets are extremely dirty. Had to wear candles the entire time because didn’t want to be barefooted. TV is very old and the entire property seems very worn down. Won’t be staying here again.
