Absolutely great but have a plan for food

Absolutely fantastic spotless property. I have travel with an ADA service dog. They gave me absolutely no issues whatsoever. The set up is fantastic. There was not a drop of dust or germs anywhere in this place. The sheets were beautiful. Everything was beautiful about this property. The service was fantastic. Check-in was a little slow. They could speed up on that or put more people there because it took the front desk like a good 45 minutes to get one person checked and I get that the woman checking in was elderly. I mean that the staff person but you know then put somebody else with her right other than that, everything was fine, except trying to find food when you realize how late it was and there is none so I wish that they would offer some kind of room service or food or what have you because you’re not gonna get DoorDash to your room there or anything like that either
