I didn't like it very much because they introduced a new policy that even if you are staying at the hotel, you must pay an extra fee to use the pools. This is absurd... This didn't exist in the past. In addition to the room, I had to pay 4 more tickets of $50/each for my family.

After tiring of typical hotel/motel situations, this was a delightful discovery. Well located on RT6A, we were in "striking distance" of restaurants both high end and others. The room was clean and pleasant. Access to the living room and dining areas in the house was easy and delightful. A continental breakfast in the morning set the day up wonderfully! The host was easy to work with and just a nice guy!! We will definitely return.
