Overnight stay

Wonderful stay. Staff were helpful and friendly. Our room was very clean. The valet service was professional and quick. We will definitely stay again.
Ellen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great Place to stay

Nice location , local free shuttle most appreciated, valet parking was easy and all the staff was helpful and friendly, breakfast is exceptional and well worth $18 . Snacks in the little shop were kind of pricey but that’s typical at any hotel . The bed is firm which is not to my comfort . I prefer a more plush and softer mattress but that’s just my preference . Would definitely stay again but if for multiple nights the firm bed might b a deal breaker . But it’s still 5* in my book .

This hotel was amazing. If there was any suggestion, it would be to revamp the breakfast format but there are plenty of options in the surrounding area so no biggy.
