Everyone was very nice. My only recommendation is a new shower head. I felt like I was suffocating in the shower. It is too forceful and sprayed all over.

Shower head was terrible. Upgrade needed. Couldn’t close a curtain, because it was off the rod. Night light bulb was burned out. I left a note with housekeeping, but neglected to mention the shower head.

Room was clean, but had a bad smell every time we entered. The faux homey style was disappointing and not our taste in decor. We would have appreciated more healthy offerings for the free breakfast.
