We loved our stay - beautiful area, beautiful hotel and room, great service. Only reason to not give it a full five stars is that our room heating furnace needed fixing when we first arrived (resolved easily within 20 mins), and the entertainment/phone system in the room stopped working a couple of hours before we checked out (movie TV system stopped working, phone had constant busy signal). They kindly gave us a discount on checkout due to these inconveniences. So I'd still love the opportunity to come back again.

Lots of construction outside making it inconvenient to get in and out of the property. The inside as immaculate and made up for the outside.
