Nice resort fare a family weekend getaway. Beautiful architecture and excellent customer service. Menu and pricing can be updated a bit to get the hotel to a five star rating. ie. no wine menu, instant coffee to barista made coffee. Very minor cosmetic changes to make the last mile.

There was a strong chemical smell in the room. I think from what they used to treat the beams. The food was ok. Staff service was excellent.
