Glidden Stay March 28, 2025

Our stay was great! Round the clock coffee, tea and hot chocolate. Breakfast buffet offered a variety of food. The only thing my family did not like is that there were ants everywhere on the heater and the chairs next to them. We had them crawling on us if we sat there.

We loved it! It was in a very safe area in the college. We walked to a great restaurant. The amenities were very nice. Our bartender was very good and made us great margaritas! We were very impressed. The breakfast was very nice too. Food was a little cold though.
