We had an enjoyable stay overall. The staff were warm, welcoming, and always happy to help, and the grounds were beautiful and very well maintained. The room, however, could have been cleaner upon arrival, which was a bit disappointing. With a little more attention to housekeeping, this would have been an excellent stay.
