9/10 Wonderful! (506 reviews)
Absolutely loved this property! The staff were so friendly and welcoming. I’ll definitely be staying here again. The rooms are spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you might need—including coffee creamer in the mini fridge, which was a nice touch. I was also impressed by the multi-device charger in the room—super convenient! The outdoor BBQ and seating areas were a perfect spot to relax. Highly recommend!
