"Room was clean, staff was nice, I love they have towels in the pool but they are tiny. The towels in the room also very small. I got this hotel because I saw it included hot breakfast. It does not. They set up baggels, apples and orange juice in the lobby. Which is nice but is not hot breakfast. The hotel was very calm and quiet. Bed sare super comfy. I would stay there again."
