Pros:

it's a great place, very relaxing. didn't get out to make much use of the facilities, it was very much a rest and recuperation trip for me, most of which was spent lounging in the room, haha.

Cons:

I wish the pool was heated. I didn't even try to get in the pool, since it was only March. I understand the financial logistics of why it isn't heated, but since there isn't a hot tub, and the pool isn't heated, that kind of sucks for those of us that enjoy swimming & hot tubbing.

but that being said, I would stay there again, either during warmer weather when the pool might be manageable, or with no expectation of pool time
