Pros:

Nice hotel with confortable beds.

Cons:

Not up to Marriott standards. The service was rude and unsupportive, and the breakfast was served using disposable paper plates and plastic utensils. Very cheap feel for a premium brand.

Kaip ir patogu, bet pusryčiai tikrai galėtų būti geresni.
Pros:

Patogi lova. Nebloga viešbučio vieta- netoli „Butter milk falls state park“, arti parduotuvės tokios kaip REI, Wegmans, netoli yra kur pavalgyti, pvz. Texas Roadhouse.

Cons:

Pusryčiai tikrai galėtų būti geresni. Gana menkas pasirinkimas. Visi indai vienkartinio naudojimo. Gana prasta kavai, ir nuolat pasibaigusi grietinėlė prie kavos. Televizorius be valdymo pultelio, pultelis tik priedeliui valdyti, per kurį itin prastas prisijungimas, norint prijungti kompiuterį- nepalaiko raiškos, neryškiai. prijungus tiesiogiai negalima garso valdyti. Triukšmingas temperatūros palakymas- labai jau ūžia pūtimas.

Pros:

The cleanliness, the amazing shower, the delicious breakfast!

Cons:

The pool was cold-not heated. The atmosphere was cold in the room where the pool is. They should be heated during wintertime. I couldn’t get in the water.
