I have stayed at FMI before and the charm and location can't be beat! Our stay consisted of two a dults for a quick weekend getaway (one king bed). The room had a safe and coffee maker and was plenty roomy. Staff was welcoming and room was comfortable, meeting needs for a great weekend. Will stay here again without reservation.
