For the money they should put a few more vegetables on the plate, The pork was overcooked. The potatoes were undercooked and the lamb chops were small.

The meat was incredibly juicy and flavorful, and honestly one of the best omelettes I've tasted. The steak and eggs were unfortunately a miss for me. The steak was a little dry and lacked flavor, but the super crispy potatoes definitely helped make up for it. The Cinnamon French Toast was good, just not as unique or homemade-tasting as I expected, still a solid 8/10. The hot chocolate was another 10/10 So delicious! The cafe itself is such a cute little spot with an outdoorsy, relaxed vibe and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Perfect for sitting around, chitchatting, and enjoying a meal. Overall, I'd definitely come back and explore more of the menu.

Unfortunately there were no patio tables available so we sat at a table just inside. The service was pretty good, with the exception of the busser forgetting our drinks. We had to ask for them again when the food came out. I got the carnitas melt with frings. The onion rings were great, however the fries could have used another minute in the oil. The sandwich was fairly tasty, however it was like the bread was grilled without butter. It just didn't get very toasty, and the bottom became soggy quickly. My wife's southern benedict was good, but the eggs seemed to have been cooked over medium. There wasn't much runny yolk at all. I was picking at my plate, and I picked up what I assumed was a piece of carnitas that had fallen out of my sandwich. Nope, it was tuna. Somehow, tuna ended up on my plate, I'm assuming from a tuna melt that was being prepared nearby. I can't stand tuna so this kind of grossed me out. I will probably give them another shot as it is a nice, relaxing place to go for breakfast, but things could have been a whole lot better.

Here you are sold a wolf ticket and being told you are going to see the best show on earth. Upon arrival to the room I noticed water on the floor which was not a result of mopping due to the fact that the floor felt sticky. The floor was also filthy. One walk across left the bottom of my feet dirty. In the bathroom there was scratched off paint as if someone or something was fighting for their life to get out of the bathroom. There was also dirty hand prints on the wall of the bathroom that had no place to set toiletries or clothing. There was also no bar soap and the coffee had not been refilled. We were staying for 4 nights and there were only two coffees. One of the biggest issues was the lock was broken on the door, as if someone had forced their way in or tried to force their way out. Very unsafe for a ground level room, especially considering plenty of addicts seem to stay here and party all night. The room also had no proper ventilation, no ceiling fan, and an old box fan that had paint all over it. The fan barely did anything and even at 55 degrees outside the room remained HOT. I also had to crawl on the floor behind nightstand to find somewhere to plug it in. Even with all this and more there was push back about switching rooms because they supposedly never do that on the weekend when a room is unsafe? They said they had to clean the new room and I had to missed a family event to wait for new room to be cleaned and moved into (no help offered). Then that room was slightly better but the floor was still filthy and the soap in the bathroom was just set in the caddy after epoxy they attached it with failed. I had to get my own socks dirty so that my feet would say clean. The beds are way too soft and you have to sleep in the center to feel like you aren't going to fall off. The water pressure is non existent. The customer service was spotty. Pet fee not explained well at all but that was all my fault according to person who explained that they HIGHLIGHTED the information. Very young people who work there who are made to put up with all the BS owners and management make them deal with. How are they to know? It's too bad, it is a wonderful location. I hope they can update someday so that it might be worth what they charge and match what they advertise. This was my one vacation this year. It was no less than awful. Aside from putting us in a safer room, the staff did nothing for us. Up to $275 a night for what? So disappointing. Update: They ended up giving us a night+ refund for our troubles. While most certainly appreciated, I feel like it was the smallest band-aid on the biggest cut. Update 2: they replied saying that lock was operational. When you put safety lock over door you could still open the door. So NO, not operational. And they said that maintenance said it worked. Nope the nice maintenance worker did NOT say that. So on top of everything else, they are now lying.
