Wonderful Stay at This Gem

helpful staff blanket post teddy bear
The staff was very cute and helpful. They even posted my son's blanket, also his teddy that we had left behind. I can't thank the owner enough!
The breakfast self-service system had some issues. The butter looked used, also it contained crumbs. The fruit in the basket showed signs of going off.
