We really liked the location. That was the best part and that the price was fairly reasonable. Things in the room were broken- there was a hole in the back of the bathroom door and the button on the lotion dispenser was broken. I wanted to tell staff about this when we check out around 8:30 am but the office was locked and there was just a drop box for the key. When we walked barefoot in the room our feet ended up black so you can see how the floors hadn’t been cleaned well. There is a balcony overlooking a beautiful stream but right across from our balcony was a rundown house and discarded rubbish in the creek
