9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,311 reviews)
Beautiful, well maintained property. The quality has not diminished over time. Same excellence offered no matter what's going on with exchange of ownership. I'm a local and have returned quite a few times. I'll definitely be back. Now I'm booking rooms that are different. The one bedroom suite is amazing! Appliances are commercial grade. Cutest bottle of dish soap I've ever seen in my life. I've been exploring the property more during this visit and I've been wowed more times than I can remember. The decor, artwork ... Just an overall attention to detail that continues to show. It's become a go to for relaxation locally.
