Need to get away? Money tight, though? Then look no further than the Springhill Hotel on Cactus Oak. For only 88 cents you get a private room with all the amenities, including breakfast!!! The staff is very courteous, rooms are clean and spacious and ambiance is like no other.
There is one small catch - you'll have to get up early to cook your own breakfast as well as that of the staff.
Yesterday Craig asked the kids to clean their rooms "hotel clean." They took it one step further and created a hotel. They made signs, had personal sized toiletries in their bathroom (thanks to a travelling dad who brings back the goods) and even made a desk area for laptops. They actually expected me to sleep in their room, too!
This morning I was woken up by an urgent staff member (Sophia) because I needed to hurry and make breakfast. What?! I thought I was the guest? So I went downstairs and made Shrek eggs (fried eggs) for Kolbe, scrambled eggs for Catherine, Veronica and Isabelle, and omelets for Craig and I. Along with toast, bacon, coffee, orange juice and chocolate milk, I'd say this breakfast was stupendous. Sophia proceeded to deliver breakfast trays to sleeping children (and dad) upstairs.
I later found out Kolbe only had to pay 24 cents for his deal. Craig didn't pay at all. And now I'm looking at a sink full of dishes!
Kids have started their school work and our day has gotten off to a good start. Thank you Springhill Hotel!
