Pros:

Easy check in and out.

Cons:

The curtains over the outside window are designed not to close only the sheers cover the window, there is no way to darken the room and totally block a view from the outside.this is very strange.?

We will find another facility to visit when I return in 3 months
Pros:

Breakfast and the staff were pleasant and professional, food was very good. Our choosing to have dinner on the evening of the 11th left a bitter experience for both of us

Cons:

My wife and myself went to the grill for dinner and our order was taken by the bartender Mark. Our total bill was $32.70 and I placed 0.00 for a tip on the receipt, place my copy in my wallet. I checked my bank account the next day and noticed a total charge of $ 39.24 for the meal the night before, and an additional charge of $ 6.54, which is a tip charge of 20 percent on the original 32.70, so I was charge a tip TWICE. It's my option weather I choose to tip someone, but this was a case of stealing, period. I won't return there again for future stays.
