A calm, clean and soothing setting. Large property and easily accessible from the parking lot. Pleasant staff and incense infused atmosphere for a calming impact. However, this will not be for you if you are sensitive to scents or perfumes as the common area of this facility is noticeably scented with traditional incense.

If you like quiet and want to relax. This is the place for you. It has hot tubs a steam room and Sauna on site. Also a spa to get whatever you like. The manager was super accommodating when we asked if they had a walk out room and she found one available. It was so great to celebrate our our 20th wedding anniversary.

The staff were lovely!! The spa was relaxing! The room needed a mini fridge and iron. The bathroom floor was a bit dirty. The backyard was really nice. The fire alarm went off twice because someone left the steam room door open.

Staff was friendly, dinner was good. Room didn’t seem clean, shower had to wait ten minutes for water to heat up, bathroom slider door wouldn’t close, stuck out of room every time we left-key card, would turn green but not open. No tv service, said to be because of the rain. Put in downstairs room when not many people seemed to be there. Expensive for what you received

I didn’t like the treatments. Overpriced and not at all what I expected. When I asked about the map to walk around it was all wrong. The property is nice because of its surroundings but it’s shame that they don’t do much enhancements - sauna didn’t work, yoga teacher on vacation - no replacement, steam room not hot enough, decounter in the rest lobby leaking water. Public toilets in the general area - rusty taps and dusted, toilets dirty. For the price not at all worthy. There are better places for spa and treatments. The only thing attractive is the surroundings but the staff don’t know about the walks. Food was great.
