2/10 Poor

The breakfast buffet is one of the better ones I have enjoyed for years. Small but everything you need and a chef to make your omelette and/or quesadillas. The waiters and restaurant staff are wonderful. As for the hotel it is lacking. This time the room had an odor, the keys were deactivated after the first night and we had issues with opening our room several times. One desk clerk was rude and full of herself and the rest were very friendly. Unfortunately that may be my last stay at the Calafia. I will be back to visit the restaurant.
