World’s BEST water pressure! That was one of the best showers I’ve ever had! Staff is friendly. Location is excellent. Communication was top notch. Only problem I experienced was I couldn’t cast my phone to the tv to watch Netflix. Didn’t bother me at all. Aside from that, I plan on stopping in again in October while road tripping for my wedding!
