What a wonderful property. The staff was so friendly. Rooms were big and clean. Loraine cracked eggs fresh every day for breakfast what a great breakfast. Eggs, ham, pancakes, begals, breads, cearals, coffe, tea, soda etc. Second day ham was replaced with bacon and pancakes replaced with french toast. $5.00 tequila shots and margaritas in the hotel lobby. Great stay!
