Wonderful Hospitality
helpful staff fabulous choice
The staff was really friendly and helpful. Breakfast and dinner had fabulous choices and quality. I did appreciate on-site parking, so I knew my vehicle was safe. The restaurant was convient after a busy day.
The shower cubicle was too small, and it flooded when I attempted a shower. The water brought up black gunk and limescale, not pleasant. I had to disinfect my legs afterward.
