Pros:

Facilities and staff was great.

Cons:

Your breakfast was very bad food wise you did not have a variety, you must only eat what you are given. When the food was finished at 9 when we got there we had to ask and you are suppose to refill. Your bacon also had a funny color, I could be wrong. But as we speak my tummy is troubling me since yesterday didn't even go to work yesterday.
