We have stayed here previously and will stay again. This hotel is outside of town & main shopping area, so is a quieter hotel than the ones located in the town. The hot breakfast provided is good. We did not use the pool, but it looked nice.

Property itself was beautiful. Noise came right thru the walls though. I could hear every word being said by a party about 50 feet away in an entrance way for about an hour before the staff asked them to quiet down. It took phone call to do it

Couldn't get the heat right but clean. Thought it was a little over-priced but I guess that's what the market dictates.

I didn’t appreciate the smoking area being right outside the front entrance. So when you would walk outside, you just smell cigarette smoke. The lady that was in charge of the breakfast in the morning was outstanding and worked very hard.
