"We enjoyed our stay here. Some tips would be to ask for a hot breakfast be made for you as thebuffet goes quickly unless you are the first guests to make it to breakfast. We also found the room to be a bit warmer than we liked but could not control the temperature to make it colder. The location is easy to walk to the local area/downtown an an easy drive to the wine areas."
