"Nice hotel, clean rooms. Breakfast was fair for a buffet in the dining room area was clean. We had snow overnight, which is not normal for this place, hence why they didn’t shovel I believe. We were on the first floor, which we requested, and it was a little noisy first thing in the morning."

"The only issue we encountered on our stay was that there were old coffee grounds still in the coffeemaker when setting up for breakfastThe home was very clean, had very comfy beds, plenty of room for gathering as a family and the area was very quiet, yet still convenient to shopping/ groceries."
