Only one suggestion is 1) the hot water should be hotter in order to make tea or mix oatmeal 2) some small packs of half/half for coffee would be great. I love their hot breakfast and yogurt selections. Excellent job!!!

We were looking fir a weekend get away for my birthday with a pool and hot tub. Pool filled with disrespect kids. Even though signs specificslly said the hot tub was reserved for only over age 14, parents ignored the rules. Reported to the front desk and they said "that can happen". Horrible experience. Never returning.
