The clerk at check in was very helpful and kind. When we checked out and were awaiting our airport shuttle we were going to grab a cup of coffee but the price was $3. So the breakfast was free except we left at 445am so we were unable to take advantage of that but the coffee was $3? It’s small things like this that have lasting effects. Won’t stay here again…keep your coffee!
