Was sufficient for my trip
Pros:

Location was good for me. Check in and out were easy. Enjoyed the sandalwood bath products.

Cons:

We asked the night staff for more towels in the pool area, there were only 2 and one had a bug in it, never brought more. Breakfast was blah. Gravy wasn't warm at all.

Great stay. Good value. Great location. Would stay again.
Pros:

Hotel facility was clean and comfortable. The breakfast had good selection. The location was perfect. We were in town for a college golf tournament. Location was great for the restaurant adjacent to the property.

Cons:

Heavy footsteps above head made for a very early moring awakening.
