Additionally, the included breakfast was probably the best I’ve ever had at a hotel, with delicious hot items, a soda and juice machine, and several selections to pick from with multiple toppings for your oatmeal, yogurt or waffles/pancakes. They even had sugar free syrup and a delicious coffee and hot chocolate bar throughout the day. The hotel room was stocked with dispensable soap, shampoo and conditioner and dish washing soap, paper towels etc. This was our second stay here and we will definitely stay here again when we are in the area."
