Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was not the most comfortable for us, with rooms a bit dark and small for the price. However, the service was top-notch, extremely accommodating, and fantastic. The location was recommended by a friend and fun to explore. The dining experience was good, but some aspects could be improved. Overall, the value for money was acceptable.
I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel provided a quiet and comfortable experience with fantastic service. However, the dining options were a bit lacking. The location was superb with plenty to see and do.
My stay at the hotel was beyond expectations. The rooms, although not meeting my specific request for two king beds, were beautiful, and the food was excellent. The service was more than accommodating, especially during a busy holiday weekend. The location was perfect for my needs, and the hotel had some thoughtful amenities. The dining was good but had limitations for those with allergies.
The hotel provided a delightful stay with clean and inviting rooms, making our experience very enjoyable despite facing the road. The service was fantastic, with friendly and helpful staff who made every interaction pleasant and courteous. The location was ideal, offering plenty to see and do, tailored with attention to detail. The dining was wonderful, though limited for people with allergies, and the facilities were top-notch.
The hotel had some lovely rooms and a great pool, but they didn't quite match up to our previous experiences. The service was excellent, especially the friendliness of the staff. The location was well-maintained and ideal for our needs. Although the dining was not perfect, it had its moments.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were very nice and clean, matching the overall classy feel of the lobby. The only minor downside was the room temperature could have been a bit lower.
