We booked this hotel for a festival at Winter Gardens. The location was absolutely spectacular and a quieter counter part to the Boomerang at night. While this is a bare bone experience, much like a college dorm, the sheets are clean and the staff made this place one of the best experience. The breakfast was made to order. The place was clean. The staff truly made the trip special
