"The “continental breakfast” it’s individual cereals, honey buns looking bread, nutrigrain bars, organic milk, and chocolate milk. My husband and I stayed in room 9 and it was pretty big with two beds. We loved our stay! And the location was perfect from a couple of restaurants and pizza joints, liquor stores, bike rental locations, ice cream, and little markets! I did enjoy the contactless check in makes it easy. Although, I do think they need to make some renovations. Also, the walls are thin...
