We choose this hotel due to breakfast, which was great. Pool is only opened limited hours and closed on Mondays. This was disappointing. HVAC system went down in our room one evening and no maintenance staff there. We unplugged it and waited... Finally started working. Hot breakfast with sausage, bacon, pancakes, scrambled eggs, pancakes, cereal,bagels, toast, juice, coffee, yogurt, fresh fruit, hard boiled eggs.
