"This place was great. The staff was super helpful, breakfasts were delicious and every employee was super friendly. We ate breakfast there almost every day. The only issue we had was the room key expired 15 minutes before checkout so we got locked out while we were moving our items out. We were part of a group and heard this happened everywhere so I think it’s coded that way intentionally"
