King jacuzzi tub room is beautiful! Bedding is luxurious and inviting. Fireplace is great addition. Shower has an opening to insert your hand to turn on water without opening door and getting you or floor wet, genius! Fire pit outside set up for semi private seating sections, very nice! They thought of everything! Will be back again.
