The AC in the room was great. The little dog yipping next door was not. The breakfast was not for us. For people with kids, I’m sure the waffles were a hit.

We enjoyed the hot breakfast provided daily. The staff were very friendly and helpful; special shoutouts to Samantha (Manager) and Beth.
The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet on the 5th floor. The balcony view facing the woods was beautiful and the fireplace was very nice and great for helping to heat the room.
However, what was otherwise an enjoyable experience was dampened by stepping in dog poop on the patch of grass by the sidewalk next to our car as we were loading our suitcases. It is a pet-friendly place, but a dog parent neglected to clean-up after their dog. Other than that, it met our needs for our vacation.
