Very large room. Great jetted tub. Very clean. Excellent bed. The food in the dining room was excellent and good value. Really appreciated James’ food and wine suggestions and personally getting us ice for our room as soon as he seen us with the ice bucket. The view is lovely from the chairs on the deck.

The most important part of sleeping for me are the pillows. Their pillows were like cotton balls like you had nothing under your head which hurt my neck throughout the night. What I did was I folded up my thick hoodie and used it as my pillow. In terms of the food that you'll buy from the restaurant, the taste was excellent.

1. Stained on our bed and have some scents. But it was attended right away. Bed sheet replaced. 2. Some hairs on the bed. 3. The curtain is too short; it doesn’t cover the whole window and we have a room on ground floor.

Few hairs on the bed. This is just one of them.
