Easy parking. Really peaceful and quiet room. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Nice spa bath shower combination in the bathroom of the room I had. I enjoyed my stay some things that would have liked: 1. Having the bodywash/shampoo dispensers lower down so they are within reach when sitting in the spa. 2. Having a handle to hold while stepping into/out of the spa. Bottom line, would I return Yes.
