Flawless from the moment I arrived this hotel is spotless, elegant, and beyond perfection. Not a single speck of dust, even the backyard gleams like a runway. Chic location, divine service, and worth far more than they charge. A stay fit for royalty and yes, this Queen approves.” 👑

Improper and bad service as well poor judgement.

Breakfast was a disaster since Saturday it took twenty minutes to have done actually find time to refill the food area. There was no one at the front desk where a clients waited for anyone to appear. The expectation to have breakfast before 10 am de as alone was failing the designate time s. No food available since the desk person appear to say he was sorry but was cleaning rooms and had no one else available until after 9 am. The photo of the lobby shows clean clear area . Office ladies room had no towels for the two mornings we stayed. The floor in our room 24 was broken at foot of bed. The floor outside of the bathroom was broken . The room itself smelled and felt damp. Bad place to stay and needs updating immediate. You should pay people to stay there. If this is your company’s idea of a hotel you need to send someone to actually inspect it.

Great family vacation!

Room was clean, except for the carpet. AC worked, large TV, no coffee/tea in the room (even though they provided a coffee machine and a cup), but was provided at breakfast. Cute room, good breakfast with lots of options and everything was fresh. Bed was firm, but comfy enough for sleeping, only 3 pillows were provided for 2 adults (wish they gave you 4 pillows), but they were alright. And the property offered nice, cozy vibes. Would definitely stay here again!

The rooms are very basic, the rooms look run down with multiple patches on walls. Some mold noted under sink in bathroom, and on ceiling. Mattresses are old and could use an update. Not luxury... But better than sleeping outside. At least the staff were friendly and very happy to help when called.
