Stephanie and Jodi were delights. Stephanie was so sweet our first night and upgraded us! Jodi was so knowledgeable about everything around town. Helpful tips and she is so well connected! Such a delight. Only downside was our cable didnt work. Seems like someone pulled the cable out of the wall. But it just gave us more time to talk.
