lovely stay
great tip flavorful wings
my friends told me about this place, and it was a great tip. we sat outside. a nice wine was in my hand, and the atmosphere was cute even with the busy surroundings. i had buffalo wings. they were very flavorful and well prepared. it was a great starter.
i had problems with the room emergency light. a bright green lamp stayed on all night and made it really hard to sleep. the checkout staff was not very helpful about this issue. they acted as if this was a new problem.
