One of the better stays I have had. The check in went smoothly and in a friendly manner and had homemade cookies (chocolate chip). The room overlooked the river and river walk. A beautiful area. The breakfast… what can I say… was extraordinary! There was a very pleasant chef cooking eggs to order; scrambled, over easy, omelets… An all around great experience. We will definitely be going back, and will look forward to doing so. A great place.
