Honest opinion

This was my second time staying at this hotel, overall I really enjoyed it, comfortable with many amenities, breakfast has a large selection, all very good expect their potatoes, I’ve had them five different times, everything the same, very poor. Hope they fix that, I do enjoy it and will stay again.

Sub-par

One of the main reasons we chose to stay here was because we’d heard the pool and breakfast were amazing. The pool was unfortunately closed for maintenance, but the breakfast was nice, with eggs and omelettes cooked to order, in addition to several other breakfast options. The room was nice, but not exceptional. I personally like a harder bed, but if super soft mattresses are your jam, then you’ll like the beds.
