"It needs some updating, and keeping up with paint, and bathrooms may need additional maintenance/cleaning (they don't use bleach to clean), but overall, it's a nice place in a great location. We stayed 6 nights, mainly to sleep and keep visiting the area. Overall some small improvements are needed, but really good value for the area. "
