Wonderful place! Lovely and spacious rooms, everyone who worked there were so nice and helpful. The little breakfast snack basket that waited for you outside your door each morning was such a pleasant surprise and a great personal touch. The bar downstairs was so enjoyable with a large arcade, pinball, skeeball, bowling alley. We will return!
