Rooms had no essentials with used towels. We had to be searched before we leave and check if we didn't steal anything. Racist behavior

Inconvenience
The place was overbooked, and after talking to the owner they made alternative arrangements for us to sleep downtown and then return a day later

Making memories
Our stay was very delightful, the staff was very friendly and helpful(Ruthie, Samantha, Michelle). Only two things that put a downer on our stay 1.We didn't get the deluxe room we ordered as it was double booked and already occupied when we arrived . 2.The wifi was not working at all.
