Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We loved staying here! Housekeeping made my son’s bed and placed his stuffy right on the pillow, it was adorable. I didn’t appreciate the lack of Gluten Free breakfast options. It’s not hard to provide naturally gluten free food. It’s not free when it’s built into the price per night so I essentially laid for food that I couldn’t enjoy.
