Beautiful hotel, very clean high quality linens and furniture. Sadly the complimentary breakfast does not match the quality of the establishment. Cold biscuits, overcooked dry and barely warm scrambled eggs, potatoes and bacon (only good thing). White sliced bread for toasting. Breakfast was of the quality of a motel. We walked out disappointed to get breakfast elsewhere. Highly recommend revamping your breakfast.
