The location and service was excellent. As a European, the bland and tasteless American drip coffee is not what I look forward to. The coffee in the coffee shop and the overall vibe of the place is great - would definitely recommend.

The hotel is one of the best we have stayed at in our travels over the past 18 years. One would think it was just built... come to find out it was built in 2017! Cleanliness was remarkable, breakfast was exquisite, and the staff were responsive and accommodating. The gym was GREAT. The rooms were so very well appointed, and the decor was splendid. The value for money spent was top notch.

The property was amazing- very very clean with great facilities. 3 big double bedrooms all with comfortable beds. 1 bedroom (masters bedroom) had huge bed. Very modern house. The kitchen facilities were spot on- cooker- microwave- toaster etc - on the day of arrival the jug of the coffee machine was no where to be found- I contacted the owner and one was delivered within 10 minutes - fantastic service. Great parking and garden with Barbecue. Washing facilities in the basement all amazing. The hosts were very easy to contact. Would 100% stay again net year if the competition is in the same USA state

    I was pleasantly surprised by how nice, clean, and up to date it was, considering how much I paid for the room. The price was super affordable and low cost. Way cheaper than some of the surrounding hotels. I will definitely come back. Also, the staff was super friendly and helpful. I would recommend this amazing hotel to everyone.
