StoneHill Lawrence, Trademark Collection by Wyndham
Breakfast was comfort food fare, not much in the way of healthy options. Room was clean, thank goodness because during our six day stay, we never received a housekeeper’s visit. Had to track staff down to get towels. Parking was fine, safe area near hospital.
