Hotel is great! Deor was beautiful, rooms spacious and most importantly, all the staff was phenomenal on customer service! The pool is a bit smaller than expected. Only con is that you hear guests next door, in the hallway, getting ice. Perhaps they can sound proof yhe rooms better? Definitely will stay here again and do highly recommend!
