"1. The room was nice and cold after being in hot temps over 100°. However i turned temp up because it was too cold but room remained too chilly. Bring warm PJs especially if your older. 2. The remote for the TV seemed way to complicated and I ended up watching U tube on my phone. Like normally when you hit guide it scrolls through everything. Otherwise nice 1 night stay."

The George Manor

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful historical property. We arrive several hours early due to our travel plans, and they were very accommodating and got our room ready first, so we could check in early. The breakfast was wonderful. The property was amazing. The units are extremely spacious, air conditioning was fantastic (and really needed with the outdoor temperatures, quiet property. Workmanship on the refurbished bathroom was subpar and the water pressure in our shower in our unit was very low. Other than those couple of minor items, it was a fabulous stay."
