Our stay was very nice. The room was clean and the jacuzzi tub was great. The sun deck is very nice, lots of seating and a great view. Breakfast was included and very delicious: croissants, egg casserole, coffee, orange juice. Staff was very friendly. The only downside was there was construction at 7am right outside are room. Overall a great stay!

Pros:Walking in we were greeted right away. They have complimentary icecream, bike rentals, and its close walking distance to all the shops/restaurants. There is a lot of parking available and it is free self-parking. There is a fan available in the room. The fireplace was cozy. The hot jacuzzi room works awesome. Breakfast being included was amazing. Food was good, service was great and menu options are limited but you can get whatever you want and they have cappuchinos.The area is quiet at night. Cons: The room is extremely outdated. We didnt have more than 2 outlets. Furniture and bedding was old and the restroom didnt have a flexible shower head. Overall we enjoyed it, but im not sure if we would go back anytime soon.
