It is a terrible place: dirty, very neglected room, dirty bed, and dirty bathroom not having been cleaned for several weeks with used soaps, a full trash-cans and trash laying all over.
The people are friendly only till they get you inside.. and then they are unfriendly. I had a look into a kitchen. Dirty floor and even inside fridge it was dirty. Disgusting. I will never go there again. Besides breakfast is served only till 8.15 as the lady who owns so called B@B has a full time job and hurries to her work. The B&B is not official I suppose because they accept only cash. They don't give receipts. It is a shame on America to have such places.
