Breakfast buffet on 10/12...everything was cold: eggs, sausage, gravy. Understaffed with just one sweet lady serving. No hot coffee twice. The hot tub was not heating...no sign. The people who work here were very nice. We had problems with our room shower...did not work in 402.and it was remedied and great service recovery.
