8/10 Very good

The property is beautiful and clean and well preserved. The lobby and the decor is very nice and updated. The food at the restaurant is very good.. We had dinner and breakfast during our day and enjoyed it. The room is clean, but the floor is sticky. The sofa bed is so lumpy. I have to ask for extra comforters to line it. For the rest of the room is in good condition and clean.
