The room was spotless, staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Pool and hot tub were great! The only flaw was breakfast - it was disappointing, especially given how great everything else was. The options were good, however everything looked to have been sitting and overcooked even though I was there at 7am.

We had to stay here recently while work was being done on our house. The absolute best part was the staff. Extremely friendly, accommodating, helpful, and available. Breakfast was decent as well. My only complaint (and not really a complaint, just an FYI) is that the pool and hot tub area definitely needs a deeper clean. Overall, we had a great stay!
