Satisfactory Stay

generous portion friendly staff missing towel leaky shower

The breakfast was great! It was made to order, and the portion was generous. The staff were super cute too. I got an excellent first impression.

The room could have used a little more attention. There was only one towel provided, even though there were supposed to be three. The shower leaked from the pipe more than the shower head, though!

The welcome was lukewarm and the restaurant wasn't open as advertised on the website. The staff member was not local and could NOT give assistance as to where to eat. The room was tired and breakfast gave the impression of a place about to close and not bothering to restock.
