Disappointing. Definitely not worth the $329 for the night
Pros:

Close to town

Cons:

There was no phone to contact reception. There was no information guide/booklet or any information regarding the hotel operations, dining options, local tours. We booked as 2ad and 2ch and beds were set up for only 3 people. I observed the accommodation pricing the night before our stay and was literally $100 plus less only because the game was on. This does not help with an enjoyable stay. Quite disappointed overall.

Expensive
Pros:

Staff lovely

Cons:

So expensive for what it is. Room looked like an unqualified handyman had a crack at the renovations. Hot water wasnt hot, could easily put a room divider between the 2 bed spaces.
