I apologize for your experience. Unfortunately that just happened to be an area outage through Charter.

Very nice facility. I do wish they had breakfast in the very nice breakfast room overlooking the lake. Now, just a breakfast box delivered to the room. Not nearly so nice, food now is just barely okay.
