Shower water pressure and temperature was perfect and the bathroom had a heat lamp! Bed was comfortable and the room was quiet. TV and WiFi worked very well, too. Breakfast area was small but was monitored for restocking and decent. Good coffee. I will look forward to a return visit."

Rebecca was on her way to Walmart and asked if we needed anything. My mom had previously purchased a memory card for her camera and was unable to get the package opened.
