We hadn’t stayed at this hotel in over 8 years, but are so happy we finally came back. The rooms had clearly been updated, but still maintained that beautiful view I had been dreaming of. Rhianon at the front desk was very helpful, friendly and kept great communication with us during our stay! We will definitely return 😍
