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.

There was no sausage links in the warmer, had not been refilled. The machine was broken for juices, no milk or yogurt in the little cooler. The carpet in the room was sticky. Overall love to stay here, however first time the breakfast as disappointing and cleanliness of room was disappointing
