“The Winstead Inn is a hidden gem… The pool felt like an oasis getaway, very quiet and peaceful. Breakfast was delicious with many options.”
“The only issue we had was the air conditioning unit in the bedroom. It was extremely loud — sounded like a truck driving over gravel. It was hard to get a decent night's sleep.”
“We were surprised we had to ask for housekeeping every day and even when they came they left garbage on the counter.”
“Winstead Inn is a treat and feels like being in paradise!”
“The breakfast was a bit disappointing, we were certainly expecting something a bit more thoughtful than a simple cold breakfast.”
