The manager Chris was absolutely awesome. He was extremely attentive before we arrived and once we got there, he recommended several spots for us to check out, including a great restaurant and an incredible hot spring spa with amazing food. We stayed at the third floor apartment and the view was stunning. Highly recommend this place.
