The staff were so nice and kind. Also, they have a lot of cute bunnies that you can see and pet them. Plus, they have one bunny out of the cage and he’s friendly when you feed him. Also, they have a cute little treehouse. The food is really good and they always clean the room so well and nice. It’s family friendly and a really nice place to stay. 😁😄😃
