Everything was 10/10 about our stay except the breakfast- but that didn't even bother us because it gave us a reason to get coffee and food somewhere local. The staff was amazing and prompt. Our room was spotless when we asked for a clean. The location was absolutely perfect for our trip. I will stay here everytime I visit!
