Room size and design are excellent, downstairs lounge and outside tables and chairs very inviting and comfortable. Breakfast outstanding in choices and quality. The in room coffee machine was defective. Hot tub not available. Breakfast attendant was overwhelmed—dishes stacked up, all four urns of coffee empty.

Not what we expected from a Raddison property. Several calls were not returnned prior to check in. Check in was not friendly or helpful. No explaination for intense scrutiny at check in. Premium pay for a very average room. The bed was way too soft and difficult to navigate. Quite a disappointment all in all
