Breakfast was really good but they could have had another person working the counter to help move people through faster. Overall, our stay was great.

Hotel Vandivort
it was a wonderful day and it's a beautiful hotel. The only problem I had with it was every single time I try to reach someone at the desk. It immediately went to a hangup sound so I didn't like that because I couldn't order room service or anything with the phone.
