Alabaster Stay

Very clean; staff was gracious and offered excellent choices for dinner; gave us extra coffees when we asked. The only “bad” thing: they need to have their elevator technician work the timing on the door closure for the elevator. It almost knocked my wife down twice (we are both a little slow due to our ages). Not only was it quick to close, but it was powerful enough that other guests commented on it.
