I stayed in a king suite with a kitchen. The bathroom was very large, had great water pressure, nice towels, however the lighting was very dim around the mirror but very bright in the shower. Was nice to relax with the couch and chair in living room very comfortable. Comfortable bed and pillows. Air conditioner worked great no noise. The hotel is out by itself so its very quite. Breakfast was okay your normal breakfast food. The staff were friendly, I would definitely stay again! They have a large pool and hot tub looked nice, I never used them. There is no place to eat close have to drive into town, but it's not far.
