Der einzige kleine Mängel war die völlig durchgesessen Couch.

Great location, friendly staff, quiet and comfortable rooms
Pros:

This is the second time we've stayed at this hotel and again we had a really good experience. Quiet and comfortable. Staff is very friendly. This time we made it a point to play all the games in the courtyard and work out in the gym. S'mores by the fire pits were a good time as always.

Cons:

I don't think there is anything that we didn't like about this hotel and we will probably stay there again.

Bad experience
Cons:

Will not recommend, more, will warn against your misleading policy of noninforming the customer about hidden fees incl. lack of breakfast, rude reception staff and especially the parking fee of 75 USD that I was informed about while checking out, not even a word was uttered upon arrival. I do not recommend unless you improve your standards and stop treating your clients as ATMs.
