a romantic stay
romantic walkhandy dryereffective heating
The location offered an easy walk to the church of the good shepherd. i strolled through a park filled with bunnies. it was such a romantic scene. Snow fell, blanketing the town. the kitchen had all the items i needed. The laundry washer and dryer were handy, too. i also appreciated the very effective heating. It kept everything cozy.
the chlorine level in the hot spa was a bit high, so i smelled of it briefly.

the kitchen was fully equipped, a real plus for preparing meals. the beds were also comfortable (i slept like a log!).
