Happy again...
We had another wonderful stay here enjoying the area. We found the beds to be a bit on the soft side, but everything else more than makes up for that. The breakfast is great, with fresh cinnamon rolls and real eggs, among other things. The room is large, and it's great to find an inn with more than one luggage rack.

Everything was good except our toilet was clogged. Called front desk and they brought us a plunger right away. The room was clean and very spacious.
I would stay here again.

When I checked in, I found out that their system couldn't use my info, and they were going to cancel my reservation unless I could find an alternative. I only have one payment method. I had to call my father-in-law and ask him to help out. (Description is a bit vague because my review was not submitted. Trying to rewrite without using terms I suspect were flagged on the initial review)
