We like it that there is a heater inside the washroom. Quiet place and we enjoy the pool and hot tub. The room is clean and spacious. We did not enjoy the breakfast that much,. we are looking for something like sausages or bacon and potato wedges maybe just to add up some protein.

I had problems checking in, the staff were no helpful. I booked 2 nights, Room service woke us up 3 times on the first morning, key card stopped working. No garbage pail in the room. Paid a 500 deposit they said they would return on check out, they did not return it. Mark the man working the front desk said "we've reached out limit on returning deposits for the day, well mail you a check" I will not ever book with this location or company ever again.
