Best place to stay!!!

Everything was amazing ! Couldn't have had a better stay. Very friendly and knowledgeable about the bootcamp graduation! Would recommend it 150%. We had the stove and fridge which helped tremendously! We had a pet also and had no problems whatsoever. We had a 2 room suite which was wonderful! It had 2 full bathrooms which made it easier to get around for our family of 5. They had a wonderful breakfast with eggs, bacon , sausage, pancakes , waffles, french toast, bagels, muffins, oatmeal with toppings . Apples, oranges and bananas. Coffee, juice and pop. Everything was fresh hot and Good!
