The hotel was clean and modern. The staff was nice. Location is great. The only downfall is that the room was extremely warm. The controls were off, so you couldn’t adjust the heat. They did have fans in the room but it was still really warm.

Outstanding breakfast ! Delivered on time and piping hot ! We have stayed a few times this past winter and were always disappointed on arriving that the bar and restaurant were never opened … dinner menu was great except the 3 dinners that we did have there we were informed that they were all out of steaks .. and limited roast beef . That was a bummer … staff are friendly and can’t do enough for you . Great place to stay ! Pillows are Devine as well as the newer mattress's
