great stay with friendly service!
spacious room delicious dishes friendly staff quiet setting
I really liked the spacious room. It had plenty of space. the dishes at the bar were delicious. the staff were friendly and helpful with directions (which i always need!). i definitely enjoyed the restful place there.
the shower door in the bathroom allowed water to leak, so the floor got wet after showering. it wasn't a big deal, but something to note.
