"Worth a stay, though housekeeping didn't vacuum under the sofa bed, and more blankets for it would've been nice. All the employees were so sweet and helpful. Due to limited parking, we opted for using valet service and recommend it. Wonderful breakfast. We had a pleasant stay. Stay here.2017-04-10"
