“This place presents an intriguing option in Philipsburg; the staff seem genuinely welcoming. The pool is a bonus for those inclined, though I would be more interested in the location near essential amenities and a manageable walk into town. Light sleepers, be aware that soundproofing might be an issue in some rooms.”
