Lovely clean welcoming inn.
Pros:

Very friendly, welcoming staff. Easy access. Plentiful parking. Nice hotel restaurant/bar downstairs with exceptional service and fine food. Spacious rooms, with room to exercise or do yoga...not cramped as is so common.

Cons:

Some instructions regarding the various electrical switches. Two chairs and a small table would have been welcome.
