Best food and customer service of my whole trip

Food was really good at every meal. I was surprised it would be so much better than other places I stayed this week. I loved how helpful and thoughtful the front desk person was. There was so much genuine kindness compared other places I stayed, and those places were not bad at all. She was just exceptional.
