The room was very basic but clean. Stayed two nights and ate at the restaurant both nights. The food was very good and the service was even better! Very friendly and helpful staff!!! I can't say enough about the staff here. Christopher made amazing cocktails! The nicest staff I have met at a hotel. Very laid back atmosphere! The walking paths were nice and the property was beautiful! We got in at 1 am the first night due to delayed flight and didnt feel unsafe at all. They helped us to our room and we were asleep for the rest of the morning! I would definitely stay here again!
