10/10 Excellent
"Totally enjoyed staying here a couple nights. The breakfast that were included with the room were very good. The staff, Mai Mai, who covered the eating area was super nice and made sure you had everything you needed. The Inn was really easy to find and close to shopping and an awesome movie theater. "
