We loved it. It was just a get away weekend for us we plan on coming back soon
Pros:

It’s nice location, the staff is friendly. It’s our second stay they great both times.

Cons:

Going to the pool when the restaurant is open is a little weird when the elevator opens and people look at you through the restaurant. But that’s minor
