This was an incredible hotel! It is the perfect location for quiet nights while also being a short drive to the city and the sights. The beds were very comfortable, the room was clean, and the bathroom was perfect. The restaurant was great and service was awesome. We were sad to leave! We had our pup with us and they even gave her a special bed, bowl, and bag of treats.
