The bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Breakfast also wasn’t any good. Even the apple juice was watered down. Over all experience not favorably. I won’t stay there again

Getaway trip
Room looked clean but it looked unkept. The shower head was lose and the drain cap came off as well as the drain plug also came off. There was a damp spot in the rug that made the smell room like wet rag. It didn’t dry up at all so there might of been a leak.

Breakfastless…
The reviews said the breakfast was a great experience, HOWEVER, when I got there, they only served a half breakfast consisting of just scrambled eggs, cheese every other day, cereal, milk, canned fruit…what happened to protein (bacon/sausage), and carbs (hashbrowns) and actual fresh fruit? Seriously…WHAT!
