Everything was perfect….only thing I found disappointing was breakfast. It ends at 9:30 which is a little too early for people on vacation who would like to sleep in. I did go eat this morning but it was not the best. Sausage patties were disgusting honestly. I did still appreciate having something available though. Overall, lovely hotel & would stay again.

The staff was very friendly. The room was clean. There was a dirty wash cloth left on the rod in the bathroom. However, I can see how it got left. I actually had went in the bathroom twice before I seen it. I called down stairs the guy quickly came and got it. People are human we all mistakes, I wasn’t mad. One of their amenities was bicycles….. oh I loved that! I’d stay again.

A clean place. Friendly staff. The parking fee for paying guests is pathetic. If I was not a guest, I would have no problem with a parking fee, but being a paying guests, any parking fee is just an easy money grab, that also WAS NOT DISCLOSED IN THE BOOKING.
