a great stay!
excellent breakfast great beer dog welcome
the breakfast was excellent. i especially appreciated the variety of beers at a great price. archie loved the attention from the reception! and the cleaning staff. i would use this place again if i return.
The guestroom doors slammed loudly. I could feel the force in the bed. this, paired with a screaming child nearby, made sleep difficult.
