A Starbucks and a bakery with gluten-free options were in the same parking lot. Also a nice place to walk in the morning, a nature trail within a half a mile.

This was one of the best laid out hotel rooms I’ve stayed at. It was easy to lay out our suitcases, be organized and access our stuff. I appreciated the coat hooks in the room and plenty of plugs. The bathroom was well laid out and easy to share with my family. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. I heard no noise from adjacent rooms or the street. The breakfast was good. We all found something that satisfied us. It was not my favorite included hotel breakfast. It was somewhere in the middle but definitely not the worst. I would stay here again and enjoy it.
