Hotel room #1 had a serious water leek from shower to room carpet. Didn't notice till late night and notified front desk in am. Day manager never told afternoon which we needed to do ourselves. Greatest part of our stay was breakfast. Staff is tremendous and food was hot, plentiful and room very well kept. 2nd room was fine. Thanks BW
