The property is older, but in decent shape. The price was good, but the mattresses are a little worn. If you don't have a car, there is no decent restaurant close.

This is our 3rd stay in 6 weeks, each time leaving our vehicle for the week to cruise. Staff is always pleasant, rooms clean and comfy. There's a train track that has action, hence 4 stars.
