Clean rooms and friendly staff. Pool and spa were great. Breakfast on the balcony. Nice
We only stayed for one night after an event. The check in late at night was a breeze and the attendant was very attentive to my motherâs handicap status. The apartment we had was beautiful and very spacious. We could have accommodated 6 easily, which was the original plan. We only ended up being 4 so we had extra room to enjoy. The breakfast was very good with anything you might want to eat. Definitely a place to stay. Highly recommended.
