Liked the room and the beds were comfortable and the bedding was snuggly. The breakfast was amazing and well seasoned. A lot of options to choose from. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only two issues were the floors made a lot of noise when walking around and the WiFi/TV was glitchy. I would definitely stay here again.
