Lantern Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent
"The staff are really nice people. They are helpful and polite. They also seemed genuinely interested in making sure the stay was nice. One day the room somehow was missed by the cleaners, mistakes happen but they were sincerely concerned and apologetic. I would stay there again."
