We enjoyed all of the amenities at this hotel. The staff is very friendly and courteous. The room is very spacious with a great kitchen. There is a restaurant downstairs as well if you don’t want to cook. The beds are very comfortable which helped to make our stay even more wonderful!

The restaurant was closed on one of the days. When it was open it was understaffed and had to wait a very long time to get service- I opted for take out, but baked goods were very dry suggesting they were old and stale. We did not use our drink vouchers because there was limited service due to staff

The property is nice but staff are nonexistent. Restaurant closed the day we were there. No one at check in- eventually they arrived. Same at check out. I just left the keys as I had no more time to wait. Otherwise it’s a good location and the price is decent.
