nice roomabundant foodfresh foodcramped podmissing tablerestaurant restriction
The room was decorated nicely and provided what I wanted. Dinner and breakfast at the nearby Inn worked out WELL. The food was fresh and abundant. I recommend both places.
The pod felt a bit cramped, BUT it was well-designed. I would have liked a table for work. I had to go outside. Restaurants had guest restrictions, which i HADN'T heard of before.

helpful staffclean roomgood breakfastsmall roomno ovenrestaurant service
The staff was helpful. My room was clean, it was the Double Room. Breakfast at the nearby inn was good. There was lots of choice.
The room was a bit small. I noticed there was no oven. Local restaurants would not serve me unless I was a guest there. I found that weird.
