Beautiful clean rooms, comfprtsble befs and pillows, spotless bathrooms! Wonderful, plentiful and delicious breakfast, helpful staff. My two complaints are the ONE elevator! Some waits were long and also seemed a fire hazard. Second, pool was closed. Disappointing for my son. Parking easy and plentiful. Don't miss Sturbridge Pottery just down the street. Stunning.
