We did not eat breakfast. However we did eat dinner. The Pork Belly was one of the best I have eaten recently and its size was beyond comparison

Gilmer Apartment Hotel
Everything was clean and comfortable. Washer/Dryer had a button that didn’t work, so the setting we were instructed to use wouldn’t work. Everything else was great!

DoubleTree by Hilton Wellington
The staff was incredibly kind and accommodating to travel issues like late arrival. While the hotel entrance is a bit hard to find, the hotel itself was beautifully appointed, comfy rooms and beds, and excellent staff.
