We liked the hotel, it has a very unique style to it. The staff was friendly and room was very clean. The things we didn’t like: No microwave and there wasn’t a lot of privacy when stepping out of the shower.

Beautiful hotel. Clean, comfortable room. Communication is very lacking. Upon check-in, no mention of breakfast/breakfast location despite the fee we paid for breakfast. No mention of the entrance to the parking lot with the arms blocking it and if/how we were to access this. Power went out at least twice during our one night stay. Not a word from staff about it. We were just left with no power, no explanation of why or if they had any idea how long it would be out. Pretty bummed with the trip honestly.
