the included breakfast was not good, eggs/sausage/potatoes were barely warm. muffins seemed a bit doughy. no one cleaning up tables after use. Parking was tight due to 2 vehicles taking up 12 parking spaces (6 spaces each) for the weekend.

The stay was nice. Clean hotel and a good breakfast. Never a working hot tub each time i have went over the last year, the pool is small but has been available 8 of 10 times to use. Mainly only interacted with cleaning staff and breakfast staff and they were all nice.
