Morning service or the lady that threaten said she would kick us out if we didn’t pay on time they’re not very nice but everyone else working up here past that certain time is very well mannered. The breakfast is very simple, but well served. The rooms are very nice and furnished to a perfection. The ac vents aren’t checked regularly your filter will probably be as bad as a beaver dam. The WiFi is slower then watching paint dry, that reminds me the place is under renovation. Not a good day time place to be, lots of bad reviews on it but overall not as bad as it looks.
