Excellent Stay Experience
cute staff dogs welcome spacious room helpful staff
My two cockerpoos were very well received. The staff was cute, and they spoiled my dogs. David, Lucas, Denise, Family Hughes, Susan, and Laura deserve special thanks. I found that nothing proved too much trouble. The room was both spacious and clean. The housekeeping staff were very helpful.
The towels had some dirt upon my arrival. The room seemed quite basic for the superior room I booked.
Rooms
9/10
The room included a comfortable king-size bed, two bedside tables, and a spacious desk. A large flat-screen television was mounted on the wall, and blackout curtains ensured good sleep. Two armchairs and a coffee table created a nice seating area.
