Beautiful Hotel in the Mountains
Pros:

This is the best hotel we have stayed in lately. The staff is fantastic so is the location, comfort, etc. I highly recommend this hotel.

Cons:

The breakfast was the best continental breakfast I have ever seen, but to make the stay perfect would be to add a small buffet. We did not eat here, because we wanted a hot breakfast. They do offer waffles.

Pros:

Breakfast was laughable at least. We left and went to a real restaurant.

Cons:

Moldy smell in room. I left my fan clipped so the headboard. When i called about it, they said they never found it. How could you miss it♡ .

Terrible beds don't stay.
Cons:

Worst bed we've ever slept on bar none. There were 2 queen beds; one had a big hole in the support when you sat on it, the other we tried to sleep on to no avail. I normally do not comment on our stays but Stonebrook has been very persistent in bothering me. Update the beds. We're not going to consider it again strike 3.
