A nice place, with nice people and nice accommodations. However, the continental breakfast provides no ability to take a 2nd cup of coffee and a second danish back to the room for your travel mate. They will not provide a tray or a coffee holder or a box. So if you want coffee, you have to go get it. Seems strange.

Check in was simple and easy, very friendly staff at Check in. Breakfast was adequate, just not many options besides pastries. I did not get my bottle of wine as advertised, not a big deal but just don’t have your heart set on a bottle of wine. Loved how quiet and pretty the property was. Will definitely stay again if we have a swim meet in the area.
