The end was convenient and very nice. Very well kept inside and out. The room was comfortable, but we didn’t like the door making it a suite to the next room.

We stayed for the weekend to celebrate an anniversary. The staff acknowledged that and helped make our weekend even more special. Fernand was awesome and made great drinks at the onsite bar. He could not have been nicer. We spent most of our time on tours and exploring the area, so, for what time we spent at the hotel was great. We only have one suggestion for the hotel. Be concious of the sitting area you have placed in the front. The tables and chairs attract people to hang out there late at night and it can disrupt people whos room is directly in front of it. Like we were placed. Might want to re locate the party area to a different location. Otherwise, we had a great stay.

The only things we were disappointed in was that there were no hooks in the bathroom to hang towels , no storage for clothes (dresser, closet) and the bathtub floor was very slippery when wet

Very nice and clean property. We were on the ground floor level, the only downside to this was the elephants stomping around in the room above us. We would come back, but request a second floor room next time

Hotel is great with nice rooms and some cool amenities. However, on a Tues morning, the city decides to do trash pickup at 445am on that road. Absolutely ridiculous and the city should be held accountable. The hotel manager said they have complained numerous times but the city wont do anything. It woke up several other guest as well, that I spoke with. Absolutely unacceptable.
