Lorraine

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Everything about our stay was amazing, from the staff, room, amenities. The only one thing I had a problem with is we ate at the restaurant every day and continuously ordered the same menu items but the quantity wasn’t consistent. On one particular dinner experience my son literally only had 2 broccoli crowns and 3 carrot slices for his mixed vegetables with his salmon but the other two nights the same meal came with 5 broccoli crowns, tons of carrots and sliced onions. But I didn’t complain at the time because the flavor was very delicious and staff was amazing. Also I know they’re thinking about doing away with sofa beds but I really wish they would reconsider because that was truly the deciding factor in my decision to stay there. Thanks

Great room and hotel

I really had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The staff was wonderful - even stopping to see if I needed help with my bags when I was unloading my car. Room was super clean! Enjoyed having the kitchenette. Really enjoyed my stay.
