Location was great. Appealing exterior and interior. Comfortable bed, nice finishes. Though our room had ants on the AC and a couple in the bathroom. Breakfast was varied and plentiful: however the militant seating procedure was rude as guests could not join people at a table unless they arrived the buffet at the same time. Ridiculous.
