There are a few palm trees, hedges, and plants to give the cream-painted building some color.A breakfast room has swinging doors that open outward toward the parking lot and large windows that let in a lot of sunlight. There’s a buffet countertop with a waffle maker, a toaster, a microwave, and coffee machines.Casual black chairs and tables are placed throughout the room. Beside the breakfast room is the glassed-in front desk and an ATM.
