Perfect Wedding Venue
We stayed two nights for a wedding. Everyone was super helpful and interested in how things were going and if we needed any help. Rooms were perfect, food was delicious…both breakfast and catered dinner from Jakes. The Fireside Room was perfect for our 20 person wedding ceremony and dinner. Would highly recommend. Thank you, Sentinel!

I was not given any grade as a VIP, the bathroom smelled, valet took far too long and was a whopping $60/night. Staff was somewhat helpful but not consistent and my room wasn’t cleaned one day.
