Great location for a quick trip!
The location was great! I was traveling with younger children, so getting to local attractions and museums was easy and quick. We stayed in mid-March, so the outside amenities were largely unavailable (the pool mainly), but we enjoyed being outside in the nice weather.I would recommend it for a couples stay or a small family of 4 or less.
