The warm breakfasts are the best! And I have to mention how friendly and helpful the staff are. We loved the pool and exercise rooms. Your pillows are the best!!! Slept wonderfully!
Very clean, updated rooms. Staff was attentive and friendly. No complaints, highly recommend.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Staff & service
My second morning I was unable to shower because the water was cold. When I complained to the front desk I was told that due to low bookings they were trying to conserve resources. I appreciate conservation mindset, but do not think that I should have to forgo a shower in order for them to save money.
On a positive, this particular hotel offers the best hot breakfast buffet! They always have plenty of food, right up to closing time. No conservation in that department.
