Leonna, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Went with my daughter's for our annual Fall trip. It's a decent place to stay for a few nights. Clean room, comfortable beds. The shower head was very wonky and the water would turn from warm to super hot to cold, but other than that, all good. Very convenient location! Close to ferry, restaurants, and Dark Sky Park!
