We could and should have stayed at the Doubletree for less. The cabin had an unpleasant odor that was not from smoking. Our clothes, even those we did not remove from our suitcases, reaked of it after only two days.

My cabin was great—clean, good natural light, plenty of privacy, and the character of an older, well-maintained motel. And the location was nice, away from the hustle of the major hotels and within easy walking distance of downtown.

This property was mid. Our overall first impression was that is was clean and quaint. After spending 3 nights there we ran into some issues. Shower pipes sounds like a jet engine when you turn the hot water on. You can tell that these cabins were a quick half-a$$ed flip. Poor maintenance. Shower handles needed replacing and the stove and appliances are cheap. This unit did not sleep eight people. You could barely fit three people on the couch to sit in the living room and watch TV. There are three queen beds, but the third bed is in the middle of a living room area downstairs. Only one bathroom for 6 people sucked. Worst of all this place needs to get bug fumigated. There were these weird Beatles in all of the beds. Not sure what they were. Every one of us left with a bunch of bug bites. Would not stay here again. Lastly after barely 12 hours in the unit, housekeeping came in when we didn’t ask for it. Said they switched the towels but did not, nothing was done except a garbage taken out. We felt very violated like they were snooping around while we were done. Called the office, which btw no one is ever at, and asked them to please stay out of our unit.

Very nice cabins, clean and comfortable. However, the small bathroom and shower hose situation made it difficult to take a decent shower.

Once quaint cabins now feel more like caricature of themselves. A bit overpriced for what other hotels cost in the area. While not on a strip of hotels, the location is not particularly walkable.
