"So nice and cozy, a gem. I had no idea how nice my room would be. Breakfast could be better if it had fresh scrambled eggs and potatoes and or more healthy options. The beautiful cozy lobby with 24 hour coffee and tea and iced tea was delightful. They really need to remove the alarm clocks from the room (ours went off at 6am) and they should get tvs that let you stream from your streaming services."
