We attended the Kris Kringle market and stayed two nights. The hotel is super clean, the room had everything we needed, the bed was very comfortable and the staff so friendly. They don’t pass a guest without saying hello and many of them had conversation with us. We felt so welcome and will be back. Great breakfast also included
