This stay was perfect for us and we only wish we had stayed longer. The staff if world-class for professionalism and kindness. The rooms were big enough for our family (4 people to each room), the breakfast was amazing, there was actually parking (which we have learned is not always available even when listed), and my kids loved the complimentary hot cocoa.
