I like the breakfast. The parking made me feel uncomfortable. The room door did not open and close without pushing it. Small bug on bathroom floor. I took pictures.
The comforter was stinky. It was replaced with a mattress cover
Mattress cover replaced a musty stinky comforter. This also had a smell
