I would stay there just in an emergency. Way too expensive.
Pros:

A bit expensive. Nice surandings.

Cons:

Lower the price of some items. I realize it is in the middle of nowhere, but Over &5.00 for a coffee is a bit much. Also, the fruit at the buffet was spoiled. You could try to test your food before displaying it for sale.
