"We really enjoyed staying at the sideways Inn, we were pleasantly surprised with everything the hospitality, fitness facility, Great bed & drop off breakfast. This is all done really well! The only thing I would say is that the lighting in the room is very dim. Would be nice if there were dimmers to raise them up if you wanted it to be brighter. It’s hard to open the shades because you’re right on the walkway."
