8/10 Very good

The staff is very attentive and helpful. The bartender was amazing. We just needed 2 more of him as the lounge was under staffed. Beautiful location just 2 miles from downtown. I wish it had a pool and had upgraded walk in showers. The breakfast was amazing. Also Pullman Restaurant is a flash back to days gone by. Dont miss it....it is remarkable.

Alice, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property is beautiful and rooms are lovely. Only thing that could have made the stay is breakfast options and keeping buffet options filled as many options were empty bowls. (Yogurt, fruit, granola) there was also very limited staff for breakfast hours.
