"Wonderful stay. The only disappointment was that there were only tea pods in the room. I love my morning coffee! Upon leaving I notified the front desk and was told there was coffee available in the breakfast room even though it was very early. 5:30 am. I was able to get a good caffeine fix without having to stop at Starbucks."
