The room was perfect. I never saw the staff. The room exceeded all expectations. I know the hotel cannot control the weather, but the weather was perfect. My gf and I had a wonderful time and I would recommend this lodging every time. BTW, if you go to the brewery, the ceviche is wonderful.

Most everything was nice about this place except a few things. Space heaters provided because heater wasn’t working. However it worked for us fine. There were flies in the room. Not sure where they came from in the middle of winter. The drive there was soooo long and the drive back after a winter storm was scary. Still liked the place but probably wouldn’t do it again.
