Awesome place for our overnight stay.
Pros:

The property is historically beautiful, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Having someone who speaks English at the registration desk was wonderful.
We ate dinner at the hotel and my steak was one of the best I've ever eaten. The value of the meal was awesome and we enjoyed eating outside.

Cons:

The area was a little loud at night and the breakfast was a disappointing with little variety.
