Staff are very nice and welcoming. We mentioned a small blue line in the tv that didn’t bother us, we just wanted to let them know for their convenience and the next thing we know we got a new tv! They are so thoughtful and want you to enjoy your time here. We absolutely loved it! Definitely will be back again!
