The breakfast offered a really good start to our day, providing us with energy. I had an evening meal, and the food proved to be delicious. Everything was very well-prepared. I appreciated the dog-friendly attitude.
The water system had low pressure, so the shower was not quite as strong as I prefer it.

The location was ACCEPTABLE and allowed easy access to nearby attractions.
The cleanliness of the room was below par. I found hairs in the bathroom and the shower head had mold. Sanitation needs improvement. The Wi-Fi signal was WEAK and unreliable. Streaming videos was IMPOSSIBLE, disrupting my work.
