Britt coffee in the room should be fully stocked Room rate should include free continental breakfast with an upgrade for full Buffett. 3 dollar coffee in the am at the restaurant in a coffee country feels like “too much” Overall . A good experience

This is a newly renovated hotel. The aesthetics are nice and the staff SUPER friendly. The breakfast buffet was delicious and they also offered made to order breakfast items. My only complaint was that the rooms were somewhat small and there were not many electrical outlets . The hotel is close to the hospital....just in case, and there are a number of NICE restaurants within walking distance.

  • Instead of handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it straight on the scanner yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
  • You are now allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. This will need to be taken out for screening.
  • Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during screening.
  • If you're bringing food on board, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
