Excellent facilities.

Pros: Healthy breakfast and lots of light. Bike usage.

Cons: Very loud from floor above. We were on the 2nd floor and there was a soccer tournament that was being held there. Very loud running up and down halls above us. We are booked to stay again but requested the 5th floor.

Pros: The staff that cleaned the rooms were very friendly. I brought my pet and it's very understandable they didn't want to come in when he wasn't in a cage. So, they just said to call them they would come up clean it while walk him. Would recommend this hotel to anyone.

A great home away from...

Pros: The breakfast had wholesome and healthy food. The patio was very relaxing, particularly with the outdoor fireplace and outdoor hot tub. The room was very modern with the wi-fi key card for entry and master switch for lighting. I could have spent forever in the shower with the rainforest nozel and great lighting. I like how the hotel doesn't use disposable items when they aren't needed - like shampoo and conditioner. The fridge and freezer worked great - like a real one would in terms of keeping things cold and frozen. I'm definitely going back.
