Pros:

Location. Food. Staff. Not a corporate hotel, small Boutique offering.

Cons:

No breakfast served but good options close by. Noisy pump from pool, solved by a room swap.

Nice and quiet.
Pros:

I've stayed here many times. Beds are very comfortable. Rooms a little small but fine. Weather had been very wet and humid. Room was musty smelling. There was a dehumidifier in he room that was very loud so we turned it off.
