Cobblestone Inn & Suites - Barron

8/10 Good

"All I remember was that I wanted to use the pool and it seemed like the same group was using it every time I checked to see if it wasn't full of kids giving me a headache. I just wanted to bob in peace. There was nothing exceptionally different about this hotel. I felt rested when I left in the morning."
