Front staff was very welcoming and friendly, parking was plentiful, rooms were spotless, and the soaps and hand lotion were high quality. We walked to a local spot for dinner by the water, so can’t comment on the hotel restaurant, but the menu looked really good. Would definitely stay here again!

8/10 Very good

Place was very nice and clean. Only downside is parking and hauling your luggage quite a distance from the entrance. Also you have to carry the luggage up stairs to get to the lobby. Bit of a hassle but otherwise great hotel.

The hotel smells amazing and is super clean. I love the amenities like the fruit infused water, nespresso pods, the soap/shampoo products in the room, and hot tub and sauna.
