Pros:

Parking was on the street next the hotel. Could get very congested in the evening. We parked our vehicle and walked wherever we was going. Everything is within walking distance. Staff was very helpful and attentive to our needs.

Pros:

The hot spa both outside and in the huge soaking tub in the room felt amazing on sore tired muscles. The restaurant right next door had great food and beer and was only 50 yards away. Would definitely recommend this place!

Pros:

The private hot pool was fantastic! The beds are very uncomfortable and the doors do not seal all the way so there was a ton of bugs in our room! Should be an easy fix if the hotel wanted to increase their ratings.

Clean, Relaxing, and Convention
Pros:

Staff was super friendly! I loved getting the text beforehand with our ETA, which made it easy to get the after-hours check-in instructions if we needed them. The room was really clean, and we loved relaxing in the oversized tub. Everything was within walking distance, which made our 18-year anniversary amazing!

The room had a really strong smell. Not sure what it was. Not dirty but maybe a cleaning spray?
