Spent four nights over the weekend and really had a good time. It’s an old house with funky rooms but they’re all very comfortable and the pool is the main staple. Half a dozen cabanas lots of places to lay out in the sun and the shaded area where there’s a makeshift bar and a continental breakfast every morning. It’s very cool, inexpensive and worth it. On the weekends locals have passes where they can come in and socialize. The pool is clothing optional but I found a very big mix of the two and ages were across the board. I met some very nice people and I would go back again in a minute. The only thing lacking is location; it is centrally located but you do have to drive to bars and restaurants but it’s worth it. Uber/Lyft. The staff is really friendly and fantastic as well.

Bathroom was scariest I’ve used in years. Mold, peeling paint, and a disgusting years-old shower curtain. Everything is very tired and nasty dirty. Even the water bowls for pets were moldy by the bar. Bed was bowed and seriously tired. Towels, too. Stay away for accommodations, maybe the play is good? It was cold when we were there.

A nice spot to hang out with locals and visitors. But we were surprised to see there was no bar - it's BYOB for food and drink! We walked several blocks to a nearby gas station to get some drinks. The pool is clothing optional which is nice to get some sun, but we did find some semen floating in the pool... which was definitely gross. So enter at your own risk! Worth checking out, but there is a $20 day pass cover which makes it feel questionable given the lack of amenities + services offered.

While staff was friendly, and pool area was ok, the room and the food choices where bad. The room that we were in was probably the worst I have ever been in. It badly needed renovations. The carpet was dirty and the bed spread was very thin and didn't keep us warm at night. There was a hole in the wall and the blinds were filthy. I accidentally touched one and it felt like slim. The room was small and there was no room for a night stand so you had to place your phone on the floor by the bed. The only breakfast item that was remotely healthy was the yogurt, and even that had sugar. All the cereals and oatmeal packages (except The Rice Krispies which they ran out of) were full of surgar or sugar coated and geared towards kids. There was no whole grain breads, just packaged bagels, English muffins, and packaged muffins. The selection of tea was well depleted, and the coffee was really weak. They did provide beer and wine for happy hour and they had a water cooler, but the water tasted like regular tap water. I would not return there.

Is this place busy during the week, or only on weekends?

Hi Tony, A lot depends on the weather. Sunny and above 68 brings out more people. If it's nice on the weekends they are definitely busier, especially Sunday.

Are women permitted to stay, or is it just men only?
